Approaching the School from Port Hope, the
visitor to T.C.S. is accorded a breathtaking
view indeed. Against a background of rolling
hills, towering oaks, and beautiful green fields,
stands an exciting tribute to the accomplishments
of modern man — the physical consummation
of a plan six years in the making.
There can be no doubt that the new buildings
have greatly expanded the horizons of T.C.S.
We now have one of the finest, best equipped
librarires in the country; the audio visual equip-
ment that we have recently acquired opens
countless new doors to us. Our new science
laboratories make possible research in fields that
we could never have explored before. And our
new living quarters bring us comfortable and
cheerful surroundings in which we can pursue
these horizons happily.
Yes. we can and should take great pride in
our new buildings. But there is one fact that we
should keep in mind. We have these buildings
because of the generosity of Old Boys, parents,
and friends of the School. As yet, we ourselves
have done nothing to earn them. To the students
of T.C.S., therefore, the buildings are not a
tribute, but a challenge. If we are to justify six
years of hard work, long planning, and tremen-
dous expense, we must rise to this challenge and
use our new facilities to their fullest potential.
There has been a great deal of negative thin-
king among the students of T.C.S. this year, to
the point where the very phrase "negative
thinking" is becoming something of a cliche.
T.C.S., mind you, is not alone in this respect;
young people everywhere today are experiencing
profound disenchantment with existing institu-
tions and mores. And to the extent that this
disenchantment results in new ideas and sugges-
tions for change, it is a good and a necessary
thing. T.C.S. needs and welcomes constructive
criticism. Many changes in the educational pro-
gramme of the School have already been effected
within the last few years; many more are still
needed, and it is up to us, the students, to point
out with as much wisdom and intelligence as
possible, those ideas of ours which we feel will
best help the School to grow as much in spirit
as it has in volume. What T.C.S. does not need,
however, is the kind of negative grumbling which
offers no concrete solutions, but chooses rather
to wallow in weakness and self-pity. There is
nothing new, of course, about the negative grum-
bler; what is new is the strange glorification of
such a person as a kind of modern hero. He is
not a hero; he is a coward who has given up on
life, and he is to be pitied, not emulated. Woodrow
Wilson once said, "It is not the man who believes
in nothing who is original or extraordinary, but
the man with true conviction".
It really is ironic that we at T.C.S., who have
just been presented with a challenge that is accor-
ded to few people our age, should presently be so
busy whining about our lot, that we are blinded
to the tremendous opportunities lying right at
our feet. Certainly, the expansion of the School
has brought with it some growing pains. But
surely we do not intend to let a few pains ruin
the whole operation. Surely we can find within
ourselves the strength to rise above and conquer
them.
A plea for an end to negative thinking does
not mean a plea for a school full of "yes men".
T.C.S. needs boys who will not accept everything
at its face value, needs boys who are constantly
on the lookout for better ways of doing things.
By rising to the challenge of our new surroun-
dings, we will vindicate the confidence of those
who have left a stake in the future of the School,
and in the long run, help ourselves, as well, to
grow along with T.C.S.

Situation: Art
An interview with Mr. Blackwood, the School
Art Master.
What do you think of the "artistic atmosphere"
at Trinitj' College School?
It is difficult to describe any atmosphere as ideal,
only in relation to how it contributes or distracts
from a very necessary state of mind. This is
part of the problem at T.C.S. — the atmosphere
is definitely not conducive to the creative state of
mind.
There are natural barriers in any educational
institution, barriers that stifle creativity and pre-
vent the development of individual character,
individualism; there must be some kind of restric-
tions. This is changing, of course, and a few of
the very modern schools are based on the idea
of the vital necessity for complete individual free-
dom in educational development.
How does free time or the lack of it influence the
art at this school?
Many of the ideas concerning free time in the
private schools are based on the Victorian con-
cept of boys — that "idlesness breeds mischief."
It might be an idea for T.C.S. to have perhaps
a free day or completely free afternoon, which
would give ample time for relaxation and crea-
tivity.
As a private school, how does T.C.S. fare in
the role of a school of artistic talent and develop-
ment?
T.C.S. as a whole is with Upper Canada of the
progressive schools of the country. But there is
an incredible lack ofgrowthinallofthe Canadian
private schools and T.C.S. is apparently just
getting out of this state.
The private schools are in the position to
contribute immensely to the development of the
arts in this country, but during Canada's first
and most crucial century, their contribution has
been almost negligible.

What is the mood of Canada's students on the
whole?
It is apparent that boys have changed in the past
ten years. They are obviously not as docile as
they were earlier and surely not as secure emo-
tionally. The private school students are more
restless, more insecure and more intelligent. They
are more intolerant of estabUshment ideas. This
kind of mood could quite conceivably be the
impetus for a great and vital creative era.
What are your recommendations for a more
productive student body, artistically?
The establishment of the Sixth Form Art Course
was quite encouraging but it is unfortunate that
nothing came of the music idea.
This is presently one of the most urgent needs
at the school — the establishment of a frame of
reference, very broad, which would accomodate
the development and support of multi-music
forms, an appreciation of traditional and modem
forms of music.

Shock Treatment — Don Ellis
Don Ellis, as most of you probably won't know,
Is a jazz trumpeter. Ellis leads his own big band,
whose bag it is to play in weird time signatures
such as 19/4, 7/4, 3'/V4, and so on. This is
Ellis' fifth album. In this album, Ellis has used
a chorus and a sitar to make his selections a
little stranger and somewhat better.
The album opens with a hard hitting "A New
Kind of Country". The song is very reminiscent
of some early big band sounds in the40's, except
for the movement of the rhythm section in 7/4
time. There is a good tenor sax solo by Ron Starr.
The next song, Mercy, Maybe Mercy is almost a
rock and roU number in its rhythm set-up — not
a very exciting piece. Opus 5 is the first strong
number on the album. The band plays tightly
and has excellent solos by Mike Lang and Don
Ellis. Incidentally, this song was taken in one
take, quite extraordinary in a studio produced
album. " Beat Me Daddy, Seven to the Bar" is a
very poor piece. It's solos seem very dispirited,
and don't add much. "The Tihai" is the most
experimental song on the album. It has been
inspired by Don Ellis' association with Indian
music. The solos are fair, though not very ima-
ginative. The rhythms in this selection are excellent
with 7/4 being generally the time but the accents
are divided in two different ways. A drum duet
is the high point of this track. The next two
pieces "MOo's Theme", and "Star ChUdren" have
a science fiction ring. The heavens seem to have
inspired these compositions, notably with the use
of a chorus and various electronic distorting
instruments — "Milo's Theme" is reminiscent of
a young Duke Ellington, except for the electronic
wizardry. In "Star ChUdren" a sitar has been
added along with a chanting chorus. Both these
numbers have some very beautiful and tender
moments in them. These two compositions are
among the album's best, especially the power-
packed ending of "Star Children". Don Ellis solos
in "Homecoming" making it worthwhile listening;
otherwise I feel this song could be done by any
big band. It is a medium paced uninspired
number. "Swan Up", the next selection, starts off
with a very jumpy happy Mary Poppins type
tune but unfortunately the rest of the song does
not keep up, and it begins to bog down and ends
up a very uninspired piece of work. The last
selection, "Zim", is in 13/4. It's a good composi-
tion with good band work and a very haunting
melody. "Zim" is one of the better cuts of the
album, with solos by Ellis and John Magruder,
the composer, on baritone sax.
Don Ellis' band is an innovation in modern
jazz. The band has played to all kinds of audiences
from hippies to the great jazz lover and after
all these performances, has been applauded hear-
tily. "Shock Treatment" is, at best, a three star
album, but it is a good album to start a Don Ellis
collection.

The Incomparable James Brown
In the music world today, few performers
survive for an extended period of time without
having to change some of their routine to suit
the public demand. On the other hand, ninety
per cent of the recording artists today entertain
for themselves, not for their audiences. Well,
brother, turn down these powerless music men,
and hitch on to that black wagon of soul: "Get
that feeling" and come up to that deep, deep
sound of Brown.
For those of you who do not know what
James Brown is all about, don't feel bad — few
people understand him. And for those who don't
cat(± that equivocal word "soul", don't go using
it in the wrong context There is only one soul
brother. Never before have I seen an entertainer
put so much effort into a single performance.
Brown plays for his audience. Every movement
can be felt throughout the auditorium and that
great desire to twinkle as Brown twinkles, shake
as Brown shakes, and kick as Brown kicks will
come to you — white or black. Open yourselves
up. Wasps, and experience Brown, for there is
nothing else like it.
And yet through all his colour, sparkle and
power, there is a mystery behind him. He is
considered the greatest number one "Motown"
singer in the world and yet his fan club is small
and predominatly black. He can't reach many
white people because he has no compromise, no
rock sound like Wilson Pickett A white person
can only pick up his driving, beating, style when
Brown is experienced live. For that is what Brown
is all about — alive. He is never interviewed,
never gets raging screams similar to those received
by all the big-time long-haired British and Ameri-
can singers of the rock world. But look out when
this ear&iy, black brother hits the stage. One day
he sang and danced for six yours in four shows.
If you've heard him and are not attracted to
him, go to a performance. I promise that you
will never get a fresher, livelier, hour and a half
of soUd entertainment anywhere, from any popu-
lar singer. Give him a try. You might just discover
something that entertains you.

"I looked around and amidst all the words of
love, I saw a lot of sex, which has nothing to do
with love and I saw something very different. I
obser\'ed a hate cult, a cult nurtured on
anarchism." These words are from the mouth of
Larry Kent, who not only says things, but also
portrays them. The result is a movie called
"High". ' ,
What he portrayed is a young man around
20, a drop-out from McGill University, pacing
the Montreal scene. He is cool, he is smooth. He
smokes pot, enjoys his sex, and desires the good
things in life. He is not a student, or a business-
man, or a hippie. He is a new breed, a new cult,
that does nothing and wants everything.
The film portrays the life he leads. He steals
from his sex partners. He sells his body. His
girlfriend steals from her sex partners. She sells
her body. Together they forge cheques, use false
credit cards, and fmally kill someone. Their
motives: money for a good life. They sell out
everyone and everything. In the end they sell
out on themselves. Life is but a game, with no
holds barred.
The film is powerful and it is gutsy. The sex m
it does not flash out and slap you in the face. It
is secondary. It is the decrepancy and filth that
comes through during the love scene in the one
room, CO-OP with two neglected babies, three
driedFup males, and four bored women. It is the
mercilessness that comes through when he leaves
a fallen sex victim penniless. It is the contempt
that comes through when tiie two stars playfully
grovel in bed, contemplating their next tiieft.
It is a hard movie to stomach, not because of
its visual effects, but because of the impact of its
realism, and its arousement of the emotions. If
you don't think this movie sounds realistic, and
that such a cult exists, Larry Kent makes it very
realistic and very believable — so much so, that
it is frightening. It dares to be seen.

Tapestry As A Way of Life
"All my life I considered a painting, a tapestry,
in fact the art, as a means of communication
with people, with our fellow-men, it is a way of
exchanging feelings and ideas. "
"Tapestry is mainly a contribution to architecture
. . . It is an object, and essentially a fabric,
intended to cover a piece of wall which, without
it, would lack something exciting: in other words
would lack charm. To charm, men willingly use
song. In fact, every poem is a song, and anyone
who creates a poem and sings it, if he sings in
tune, touches andconvinces his listeners. The main
point is to convince; the poem is an action taking
shape. " Jean Lurcat, 1960
The tapestries of the late Jean Lurcat do more
than just convince their viewer — they grip,
fascinate, and even haunt him. Brilliant colours,
rich texture, and a choice of weird and mystical
themes all contribute to the tremendous impact
that Lurcat's tapestries have on anyone who
looks at them.
It was Lurcat who was largely responsible for
reviving the almost forgotten art of tapestry
weaving in the first place. He alone had the vision
and imagination to see the vast possibilities
weaving presented to contemporary art. He alone
was able to see that tapestries need not be the
placid, pretty and rather faded medium that it
had been in the past; but instead could become
one of the most vibrant, exciting, and alive media
that the artist could work through.
Lurcat brought to his work not only a superb
skill and understanding ofweaving technique, but
the compassionate sensitivity and knowledge of
the nature of suffering which all great artists
must possess in order to communicate with their
public on a deep and sensitive plane. Lurcat
fought in both World Wars, and was an active
member of the French Underground during the
Second World War. He was well acquainted,
therefore, with the depths of human depravity
and the height of human valour and courage. His
tapestries reflect his experiences, and tell of his
horror at human behaviour as well as his abiding
faith in the goodness of man.
Lurcat died just two years ago. But his fame
is just beginning to sweep the world. I became
acquainted with the works of Lurcat at a showing
of his in Stratford, Ontario last month. The
enthusiasm with which those Canadians who have
seen his work have greeted it, could indicate that
we shall be seeing more of it If you get an
opportimity to see some Lurcat tapestries, I urge
you to grab it — once having been exposed to it,
you will not soon forget the work of Jean Lurcat

The Butterfieid Phenonmena
Old man Butterfieid, still on top of his music
after five* years of hanging on to his public. The
face hasn't changed, but the flow of band members
and the subtle change of influence has affected
Butterfield's music.
Ever since the radical addition of brass, the
new blues of Butterfieid has become more intro-
spective. The fervent desire to copy Negro blues
men has become less intense. There is no aping
of style in his two most recent releases. The mood
is high and the tempo fired, the soul comes from
the self.
But the phenomena (and it does exist) is one
of attraction. Bodies who never thought they
would like anything off the TOP40 are alternately
repelled and lured by Butterfield's music, his
band, his white soul.
Butterfieid is a kind of free replacement soul
brother. His colour, white, is undeniably contrary
to a real soul brother. The white audience accepts
the replacement, perhaps finding it too low to
stoop for Muddy Waters or Lightnin Hopkins.
Butterfieid is not just a white soul brother, but
also a boss man. The band is under his constant
direction; he is much like a symphony orchestra
conductor. Nobody steps out of his particular
job. There is no shirking — if there is shirking of
duty, the band member is fired. Through this
process Butterfieid has lost upwards of six excel-
lent musicians, the absence of none apparently
damaging the Butterfieid Band's reputation.
Sometimes blues fans object to the controlled
atmosphere and restricting image of Butterfieid,
the leader of the band. They complain of a lack
of spontaneity, fostered in the souls of all the
musicicans by Butterfieid himself. However, this
control and direction does much good and is a
factor in Butterfield's great popularity across the
country. One cannot deny the very beauty of his
music — he may be a white replacement, a
second-hand Muddy Waters, but his presence is
felt.
Now there is a magic to the name of the man.
His ability to lay white blues on the line, no
punches pulled, impresses his audiences. The con-
stant selling of his L.P.'s is surely an indication
of the phenomena.
Butterfieid is on top of the white blues scene
and wlD remain until someone of greater power
and discipline can gain the lead.

Comment

Criticism
Editorial
This year, Comment and Criticism has broken
away from the traditional approach. Since its
beginnings, three years ago, the section has
mainly been a voice of expression for the negative
element of the school. The articles rarely approa-
ched any topic from a positive viewpoint, and
even the negative criticism very rarely went
beyond the school campus. This year, however,
there has been a great influx of objective and
positive articles dealing with every topic from
philosophy to student power. Hopefully; this
trend will continue so that we will be able to
achieve a balance between positive and negative,
on and off campus articles.

Patriotism
With a blast of "God Save The Queen" from
the band, the Guard of Honour gave the Royal
Salute. The grey-haired man on the podium smiled
and tipped his hat to the lines ofcadets as cameras
whirred and clicked catching every motion he
made. The parents craned for a good look at the
Governor General. They ran off in whatever
direction he was led and prayed like mad that
he would come over and speak to them. On the
other hand, however, few boys were impressed.
This is perhaps the greatest difference between
Canadian parents and children. The older people
are still very much impressed by appearance
and name alone. They have great respect for a
Governor or a Queen, even if they don't know if
either of them has done anything for the country
in twenty years. In the case of the Governor
General, it is obvious he is an outstanding diplo-
mat However, there are people who would have
been much better suited to open the new buildings.
The chairman of the board that organized the
expansion plan had far more right to open the
buildings than anyone else. He and his fellow
board members had worked hard for six years
and what should have been their moment of
triumph was given away as a cameo role to the
Governor General for the sole purpose of attrac-
ting more people and hence more money to the
School. I wish for once that our elders would
realize that T.C.S. is T.C.S. regardless of who
opens the buildings and that it's a worthwhile
place to invest money because it's a school not
an exclusive social club.
Parents are impressed by Governor Generals
and the Queen, and, it is interesting to note, by
the military. Most boys detest everything cadets
stand for because it is completely contrary to all
their ideals. Yet parents somehow respect a man
who wears a uniform and carries his shoulders
as straight as can be. It is an interesting question
why they are so fond of military training. I
think it is a reflection of the war years all our
parents went through. It has left them with the
strange idea thatpartofdeveloping into manhood
is to learn to take orders without question. They
see all boys who were not cadets or soldiers as
something incomplete, something effeminate.
Along the same lines, parents love Great Britain,
or anything British. I think the attitude of war
memories are reflected here.
Therefore, I feel that our elders are in a
terrible rut. They are, in fact, living their lives
with the memories and attitudes of a country at
war. If we, as a world, want to continue in peace,
we must rid ourselves of all the militant and
war worshipping attitudes that are so apparent
in our parents.

Without knowing it. We are all participating
in a plot to arrest the progress of mankind. Each
time We express an opinion in writing, or read
an article written in the first person, We are
being brainwashed. It is Our English language
that is doing this; for it capitalizes the word "i".
Centuries ago, some reactionary' incorporated this
subtle propaganda into Our language and each
succeeding generation has continued this and been
influenced by it.
Thus, ever>' opinion We express is prejudicing
Our judgement and corrupting Our morals, for
by writing the word i as a proper noun, We
are placing undue emphasis on it. We are stressing
the iniquitous notions of selfishness, self-centred-
ness, egotism, and individualism by capitalizing
their source. Unfortunately, these vices are pre-
sent to some extent everywhere; but must Our
language emphasize them? i should hope not
Thus, this is the source of our inequality. We
are obsessed by Ourselves. This is preventing us
from realizing Our true altruistic and coUectivist
ideals. This subtle brainwashing has led to capi-
talism and prevented Our class consciousness and
communist revolution from spreading throughout
the world. The word I (i hesitate to use it like
this, but i must for purposes of illustration) has
so coloured Our judgement and biased Our beliefs
that We cannot see the true light as set down in
the Gospel according to Karl Marx.
Comrades, we must remedy this situation; We
must put the emphasis back where it belongs.

selves. Only We can overcome.

The Worshipper
. . . And in my dream I came upon a Temple.
I don't remember what it looked like from the
outside — as if it mattered, anyway — but I
suppose that it didn't look like much. I was alone
that day, and I entered the Temple on a sudden,
spontaneous impulse; which I now know is the
only way in which one can ever enter into any
real communion with the universe.
Though the interior of the Temple was unlike
any which I had ever been led to expect, I did
not find it strange. On the contrary, everything
seemed, for once, to be as it should, to follow the
natural order of things, and my body lost its
customary tenseness, and my senses came miracu-
lously alive, forcing the calculating brain to
abdicate its usual supremacy to that part of me
which cannot reason but can only feel.
I don't know which struck me first — the
flickering, hallucinatory flame from a solitary
candle, the pungent aroma of an incense stick,
or the wild but low strains of some hidden organ.
I guess that at the time, none of these stood out
individually, but rather melted together into one
beautiful whole, which I absorbed unthinkingly.
It was only much later that my analytical powers
took over once more, and I was able to rip apart
the beautiful whole and spread its components
under the glare of that merciless magnifying glass
we call the human brain.
At any rate, my feet somehow led me to a
dark corner of the Temple. I sat down on the
floor and time disappeared. My mind, I know,
was working; but thoughts came to me not in

logical patterns, but in sudden, brilliant flashes.
Visions of things I only half understood floated
across my being. The body moved on its own
account, in intimate harmony with the soul, and
the voice, caught by the all-engulfing strains of
the organ, sang a song of harmony and oneness
with all that surrounded it. I don't know if I felt
happy — I don't think so — but happiness is
irrelevant The only thing that mattered was the
utter peace that had descended upon me. Like an
infinitely soft and intricate web.
Somehow I became aware of the other wor-
shippers in the temple. They did not detract from
my feelings of harmony and peace, as people
generally do, but rather they added to and
enriched it, by communicating with me their
fellowship and joy in the partial sharing of their
spiritual ecstacies; partial sharing, I say, for in
each man there must be a hidden corner which
cannot be shared, which is uniquely and solely
his. Everyone in the Temple instinctively realized
this, and they did not tr>' to uncover that which
they were not meant to see; indeed, their beauty
lay in their instinctive understanding and compli-
ance with the nature of things and the underlying
pattern of creation.
Once again, I felt the peace of perfect harmony
and understanding. . .
And when I woke and felt my eyes being met
by a pair of cold, unseeing marbles, felt them
sweep over the glittering array of jewels and furs
and genteel emptiness, I cried for that which was,

The Fight
On a Saturday night, soon after the start of
the year, a group of about 60 Port Hope boys
attacked some T.C.S. boys who were walking up
from the movie. The "Port Hopers" had a couple
of chains and brass knuckles and one switch
blade.
The injuries amounted to a cut knee, a scraped
face and a big scare — no one was hurt to any
serious degree.
The immediate feeling was that the "grease"
were in the wrong. They were the boys from the
pool hall, many of them already in trouble with
the police. This summer they had badly beaten
up a local boy. Most of the local residents were
entirely on the side of T.C.S.
However, there is another side to the story.
T.C.S. boys are regarded as snobs by most of
the people of Port Hope, and not without reason.
The fees for this school exceed the annual income
of a great many people in Port Hope. There is,
of course, nothing wrong with this. However,
when some of us go downtown and flaunt our
money in the stores, when some of us are rude to
sales clerks or waitresses, we are just asking for
trouble. One boy, who is not back this year,
asked a waitress for a cup of tea with three tea
bags. She kindly gave him two but could not
find him three. He then hurled the cup of tea
across the restaurant and called her a "filthy pig".
Another incident took place at the theatre. Some
T.C.S. boys sat behind a Port Hope couple and
called them both names. After the show, these
boys separated the couple, causing great
embarassment for both people.
These are admittedly two extraordinary inci-
dents. However, news of such things does spread
around, whether at a pool hall, at a bridge game,
or at the dinner table. Many such incidents, in
the past few years, have caused a deep and justi-
fied resentment.
Other causes of this resentment are our con-
stant loudness in the movies and our attitude
towards people of Port Hope. Every Saturday,
large groups of T.C.S. boys walk down the mid-
dle of Ward Street, laughing at the cars they
hold up and calling all the Port Hopers "gris".
However, there was more to the fight than
resentment There was also a spark which trig-
gered it. The annual car show was being held in
The Rink and many T.C.S. boys were there. Some
of them suddenly thought of a "hilarious" joke
and proceeded to pour coke over seats of the
cars. Laughing at the outraged protests, they
walked out
For the benefit of those who still believe that
the local people were entirely in the wrong, I
would like to point out once again, that no boys
were seriously hurt We were merely given a scare
and it has done us some good. We now keep
more of our comments to ourselves and we no
longer act like invulnerable gods.
I do not feel that the Port Hope boys should
be too severely condemned for an action which,
although extreme, had plenty of justification, did
not really hurt anyone, and in the end has had
a positive effect on us.

Does Man Have A Purpose?
There is a biological instinct of man which, 1
suppose, one could call his purpose. All animals
share it within. Animals are required to achieve
three things in their lives: reproduce, survive, and
rear their offspring to the reproductive age. Every-
thing else man has created and done is for his
own amusement; to keep his mind occupied.
Civilization is a game, a form of entertainment
On the assumption that his life has some kind
of moral purpose, man conceived of an afterlife
where he continues to exist beyond his normal
earth life span. But if man has no purpose on
earth, then what purpose has he in an afterlife?
Life is a biological process: you were born, you
were reared, you reproduce, and during all this
time you try to survive and then finally death;
the end. You have produced an offspring to take
your place; to keep your species going. Man's
real afterlife is in his offspring. The only way
he'll live again is through his child.
Man is simply a product of the phenomenom
evolution and was not intended to have purpose.
He is just a high form of life that with the ability
to think, has created what he has and conceived
many explanations to his existence which he likes
to think is for a purpose.
Does man have a purpose? Man believes that
because he is intellectually far superior to the
other animals that he must have a purpose; that
there is some reason for existance.
Because of the complexity of life, man feels
that it is impossible to have just evolved. There
must be, he argues, a reason for the existance
of such a complex and intellectual organism.
I believe that there is a great possibility that
man just happened to be; to have evolved. There-
fore, I feel Oiat man has no real purpose. He is
simply a product of several billion years of
evolution. Earth is one of many probably planets
that life miraculouslybegan. Though one of the
unknown phenomena of this universe, a micro-
scopic organism was instantly formed by some
accident: a lightning bolt hitting a certain group
of atoms perhaps, with the inconceivable number
of planets which exist in the universe, this pro-
bability could be true. Through a billion years of
evolution, the earth, due to its conditions, pro-
duced man along with countless other species of
animals. Man exists by a miraculous chance. He
was not meant to be, or created for a purpose,
but simply unexpectedly became; evolved. The
complexity of life and the human body was
formed through millions and millions of years.

". . . and I stood watching,
And I stood waiting. "
JOHNSON HALTS BOMBING
HANOI
TO TALK
PEACE
Can we hope?
Can we now expect something from behind
the closed doors? I like to think so, because if
I did not, I would be rejecting the only possible
route left to the future.
Even yesterday pessimism ran high, so high
in fact that one clever fellow was about to write
an article for this section on "What hasn't hap-
pend at the Paris Peace Talks." Up until this
morning he would have been justified in the
opinion that nothing was happening, and now he
must wait and see whether in a few weeks' time he
may again begin an article along those lines.
It may be just as fatal to go off on a spree of
magnificent optimism, if we remind ourselves of
what happend in September when the same thing
occurred. The over-reaction of the public could
have been expected, but it is interesting to note
how, overnight. President Johnson's public image
went from deep black tothewhiteofthe crusaders.
His emotion-charged speech on that occasion
negated the opinion that he was a lion, harsh
and unfeeling.
What now? He has taken his actions a step
further, and in ceasing all bombing of all tjrpe
he once agaim seems to be the human wonder
that cannot see bloodshed without guilt. If the
last tactic was a political move, this one must
not be, because the last one failed, and this
one cannot afford to. The Hanoi delegation was
in no way about to take part in a compromise,
and so Johnson has met an ultimatum, and can
now only wait. If it is rejected, the only further
step in the natural progression of things, is a
total withdrawal of aU U.S. troops from Southeast
Asia. This would be, in effect, a complete sur-
render, and it doesn't take a fool to realize the
likelihood of this "eat and run" tactic from our
neighbours to the south.
The negotiations resume in four days, and as
a carrot we have the assurance of the Hanoi
representative that immediate action will follow
any such move of the United States. If this
statement was made in good faith, (and wereaOy
have no way of being sure) then the future may
not be black at aD, and the war may be over in
the foreseeable future. If, however, this is simply
a play for time, we will have lost all possibility
of the continuation of the talks. They wUl turn
into the complete farce they were in early Septem-
ber when Hanoi would not even recognize the
fact that they were directly involved in any war
at all. They contended that all those fighting were
volunteers, and not conscripts.
By his action. President Johnson has laid some
very clear ground rules which the next adminis-
tration must follow — be it Nixon or Humphrey.
Either one will be forced to follow a policy which
will be determined by Hanoi's reaction to this
overture.
It must be positive ... it must. Because, if it
isn't, I will be forced to take a very negative
attitude and say that we cannot hope.

Livel
Summer is a season of love. It Is a time for
rest and a time for work. In Summer we can
'live' as much or as little as we want.
Winter is a season of despair. It is a time
for work and a time for prayer. In Winter we
exist as well as we can.
Spring is a season of hope. It is a time for
youUi and a time for birth. In Spring we redis-
cover the world.
Autumn is a season of sadness. It is a time
for conceding our losses, and a time to prepare.
In Autumn we remeber the lost world of Summer.
These are the traditional descriptions of the
seasons and they are not altogether incorrect —
but I feel a certain amount of adjustment is
necessary for some individuals. Some of us love
the year round, we work, we rest, we despair, we
pray, we are constantly discovering new aspects
of the world. Some of us are young, we are
sad, we prepare, and we admit our failures and
we remember the world of the season past But
we do not do these things according to the season
— we try to do them all at once.
We are young! We must think and then we
must live. Only once in our lives will we be able
to do all the things that each season stands for,
only once will we be able to do all these things
at any time of the year. When we are young the
calendar should have no meaning, for we must
fill our lives with every kind of activity that is
available. We can be sad and despair, but as
much as we despair at times and are sad at times,
we never lose sight of our hopes, our successes
and our joys. If we do, then ouryouth is lost and
without it we die. For youth is not smooth cheeks
and strong words, it is the ability to learn, the
ideas of idealists and the optimism for the future.
Some of the young people in the world today
have no hopes for tomorrow. These people are
dead. In the Western Hemisphere some people
who once knew youth have thrown it away
because they see no hope for the future of the
world. But to these people I say, there is always
hope. We must not be pessimistic, and we must
not blame our situation on our forebears. For
grumbling about our situation will do nothing,
and the only way we shall every succeed in the
job set before us, that of rebuilding a crumbling
world, is to be optimistic, to strike out; certainly
to make mistakes, but to continue, to learn, and
slowly to draw nearer to our dream of utopi
Perhaps summer, winter, spring and autumn
seem to be in no way connected with youth and
what we must do, but I maintain that the spirit
of living to the full must be achieved by rolling
all the activities of every season into one, and by
trying to fill every minute of our time with some
activity. Time should never be wasted, for our
span is only four score year and ten, and in this
relatively short time we have so many things to
do. If we "die", then the world will die also.
For those who have lost their youth (and
there is no reason for a man of eighty not to
have youth) the traditional concepts of the sea-
sons mean something, and as each season rolls
around, their lives change. But if you are young
at heart, all the seasons are one and there is no
need ever to be completely overcome by the emo-
tions of one season or another. What it boils
down to, is that at all times we must
LIVE!

Student Power — A Dangerous Form of Extremism?
Ever>'where in the world today there is some
great struggle, some great quest for power — it
is then only natural to expect that the students
of today should want to have their say— to have
power and to be influential. It then appears that
the question before us is simply this: to what
extent can this quest be justified; in other words,
how much dissent and disruption can be tolerated
in the pursuit of a valid and meaningful amount
of power.
It is my opinion that in some cases, this valid
pursuit of socio-political power becomes a dan-
gerous form of extremism; in fact, it becomes a
lust for power for its own sake; a desire for power
which is not needed and cannot be used properly.
Furthermore, a social organism such as a group
of students can, as is the case with individual
human beings, become corrupt and intoxicated
by power. I am afraid that this is just what
happened at Columbia and in France.
Although I would be the last person to cate-
gorically condemn the movement, I feel that as
soon as it loses sight of its perspectives, there is
bound to be trouble. In a rapidly changing world,
it is not surprising that certain institutions should
lag behind in their development; thus there is a
vital and necessary, and valid role for the students
to play, that is, to act as a force to help modernize
outmoded institutions.
By looking at two examples, we should gain
a better idea of how a student body should and
should not act. In France we can easily see that
the students had much to be upset about Their
universities were, and stiU are, bureaucratic,
antiquated and impersonal institutions; they were,
in fact, huge machine-like organisms which existed
only for the granting of diplomas. Thus the stu-
dents of France were justified in their quest for
some radical changes, but in spite of this, there
is no justification, for the later days of this revolt
had lost all meaning; it had become its own
meaning and its own end; consequently it became
a destructive rather than a reforming force; thus,
it should be condemned as a dangerous extre-
mism, if not an immoral nihilistic exercise in
power.
We should also realize that sometimes a student
movement comes under the control of men who
are working for their own personal ends as
opposed to the common benefit; men who are
dedicated to the destruction of law, order and
society. Thus, young people involved in student
movements should be careful not to lose sight
of their perspective; otherwise they may simply
become pawns in a larger game.
At Columbia, we see many of the same ingre-
dients; at first we can see that the students of
Columbia were morally right in demanding that
the University act with a social conscience. Later
Later on this protest evolved in such a way
that it became the goal itself; their professed
moral considerations provided them with a good
camouflage. It is unfortunate that Rudd and
organizations such as the Students for a Demo-
cratic Society have a tendency to drift toward
the extremes. Human nature, it would seem, has
an inherent talent for carrying an idea to its
logical absurdity.
In closing, we can see that the student power
movement contains an element which is, at the
same time, both its greatest strength and its
greatest weakness — the idealism of youth. It
is a powerful and dynamic force to reshape the
world, and yet this idealism is one of the major
reasons why young people can become lost in
their own ends — and herein lies the great danger.
This great strength and spirit is just the thing
that can lead us to the extremes of political action.
It is perhaps important to realize that young
idealists are perhaps more easUy moved by the
corrupting and intoxicating influence of the power
of a mass movement Youth and vitality are
both a blessing and a curse, and these strengths
and weaknesses of we who are young today will
be the factor that will shape tomorrow. Student
power serves a necessary and vital function in
the modern dilemma, yet in it there are £dso
seeds of nihilism and destruction — the choice is
ours.

Student Power at T.C.S.
The roving student radical, Benny Bohnsrun,
a visitor from that renowned hotbed, the Uni-
versity of Warsaw, was travelling over the length
and breadth of Canada, trying to pick up new
ideas for a student revolt at home. Naturally,
Benny did not forget to include in his studies
T.C.S. , a renowned secondary school of world
repute. He sent back this rather unusual report
to his Student's Council concerning Trinity
College School:
"Trinity College School has broken all conven-
tions of student power. There are no protests, no
marches, no sit-ins, no violent outrages. I
natiirally took this to mean that all the boys
were perfectly content. But strangely enough, I
soon discovered that such was not the case. Indeed,
there is no place in the world where more negative
thinking and criticism takes place among indivi-
duals. But all it ever amounts to are dull grumb-
lings among friends and acquaintances. This re-
sults in the formation of numerous cliques,
composed of people with common grumblings.
With so much underground criticism appar-
ently brewing at the School, I became determined
to find the outlets of protest I finally discovered
them, though hardly in the spheres that I have
previously been accustomed to looking.
- Student power is the Bigside Football Table.
- Student power is marching to the Saturday
night movie down the middle of the road.
- Student power is descending upon Boulden
House for a cheer during a Friday night rally.
- Student power is wearing Hush Puppies to
Chapel.
- Student power is the Student's CouncU electing
a Third Form Entertainment Committee Repre-
sentative.
- Student power is a rifle drill with obsolete
rifles, whose butts are dragged across the ground
as a symbol of furious defiance.
There was one observation I made which
greatly disturbed me. This is a strange form of
student power which would perhaps be better
named "Ego-power". It consists of the diabolical
attempt of a discontented young man and his
avid young follower to take over all the media
at T.C.S. in order to satisfy a personal quest
for power. This is indeed a unique form of
student power.
All in all, I found my investigations at this
school most enlightening. But I would not recom-
mend it for outside agitations; the students here
seem to be on some far out plane, quite incompre-
hensible to the average student radical.

progress
As you walk through the field of tall grass
and rough ground towards the young girl's
house, think of her. She was young once, but
you've brought her farther along in life. Your
feet are tough so they don't hurt too much;
they've been bare, I s'pose, for months. Your
hair is long and dirty. Brush it back behind your
shoulders so your face can get the wind. Keep
walking. Your guitar and harmonica are back at
your room, and you don't have them to weigh
you down — that's good, because you're already
"getting tired. Think back . . . it's been a while
since you had an adequate meal . . . you're out
I V of shape. Keep walking, though. There are some
IJj wild daisies. Pick one. Put it in your hair. That's
it. Keep going. It's a long field! There are some
more daisies. Now! . . . now, notice that good
thought which hasn't formed words yet. It's a
(p wonderful thought. The daisies are dancing in the
wind. Stop. Stop walking . . . Watch the flowers,
and smile. It's so nice to relax here in the field.
God! how can a nigger live! You've been scorned
by society so much and you're white! Oh well.
Forget how things are outside this field and just
settle back among the daisies and laugh at the
sun. You'll notice how much fun that is. Take
off your sun glasses and watch the flowers. Think
of what it would be like to be a daisy. Think of
^ vour childhood. It was a long time ago. Let the
(v) "flowers remind you of silly little things. Not of
your life, not of people, or of the cops, or of the
young girl. You wish you were back at that
party the other night. God! You were quite stoned,
weren't you? It's beautiful, so I'm told. Really!
It is a beautiful experience. You think it's beauti-
ful — you know it is. Anyway, you were thinking
of these flowers. Man! You don't wish you were
still at that party. You like it here. Think of all
the world's little beauties. Now you'll notice the
laughter within you. These little flowers, let them
remind you of all the little fantasies, joys, beauties.
Now you'll notice the despair within you as you
look at the bottle. Open it. Smell. Notice the
confusion, then the deciding, then the disgust,
all within you.
If you do these things, you will want to make
the change, and think of flowers. Pour the acid
out onto the ground and get up and stamp on
the bottle to crush it. Then go away into the
.sunshine and write poetry about flowers and
sunshine and trees and drink creek water, and
kill rabbits in the woods to eat And for something
to think of, think of God.
You can, they're all there.

smillet cove
Strange happenings, mysterious in the cove,
That dark detached cove placed without
Our small and scared imaginations.
Nestled between high grey bluffs
Composed of age-old shattered stone
Where something underhanded strove
To carr>' on evil between dusk
And dawn. Flickering torches, mists
Of unabating fogs, and rumbles
Of low and unprevailing voices
Exclaiming sometimes so loud
That the great stone loosens and crumbles
'Round the tiny opening, where salted spray
moistens,
Drenching at various moments the strange
Ghostly foliage around the hidden beach
And the moonlight's radiance fades
Away from the opening small.
Letting alone the farthest beach
Of the farthest parts of all . . .
The voices may be the water churned among
The hollow stones, but the torches — unexplained.

interlude
A strange, uncanny power was forming out
on the ocean. The presence of dark, untamed
forces was in the still air of the twilight. Two
different yet allied omnipotent beings readied
themselves for their "unresistable" assault on the
sea front.
One of the powers was a vast, shapeless mass
of darkness that blotted out the light, and stilled
the wind. The other was an ever-stirring, never-
ceasing turmoil of translucent whiteness that
gushed over the brine.
The forces massed together for an erruption
onto the beach where a long, silent figure stood.
The man's very existence taunted the vexed forces.
In silence, but with swiftness, they surged
over the water toward the still man. The black-
ness swept through the salt flavoured air, and the
whiteness churned over the water like many wild,
galloping steeds thundering across a plain. They
came on faster and faster — yet the figure re-
mained fixed and unheeding.
They attacked! The blackness enveloped the
man and blinded him in its smothering thickness.
The whiteness threw all its moving weight against
him!
The old man stood thinking by the sea shore.
The fog was coming in, so he would have to go
home soon. He watched a single wave roll up
out of the water and over his feet The old man
laughed quietly. "How monotonous you are
ocean", he said alound.
He turned and walked back to his warm, cozy
little cottage. Another wave reached up the beach,
pursuing him, but then retreated back into the
ocean . . .

beyond the heavens
Alone and silent he climbed to the summit of the giant mass of rock,
and lifting his eyes to the heavens cried out in haughty tone.
I am here O powers, O nature;
I am here before you and am supreme.
ye power who has made me
1 defy you to remove my being;
For I, the man, am omnipotent.
And the winds heralded his cry to the boundaries of the sky and earth
and having made the man heard, was still with shock.
And the sun shook with dismay,
the clouds blackened with anger,
the waters rumbled with fury;
and the trees heard and shook their limbs
while the flowers wilted.
Then there was a roar such as no ears could bear, that could hear,
and so great was the force that the mountains were toppled.
And the man's own kind suffered
and great was the ruin;
buildings were collapsing
and houses were flattened.
But it did not harm the man on the summit of the great rock,
for with arms outstretched to the sky he remained still.
I am here O powers, O nature,
I am here, still before you
and am supreme.
Then the skies turned solid black and the sun was hidden;
so great was the cold and dark that again his own kind suffered.
And the nature cried forth a terrible cry against all man with
thunder and bolts of fire.

We were here to help you live,
we have seeded and fed you,
we have sheltered and saved you,
and now what do you do?
Do you appreciate us?
You have used your strength against yourselves
and threaten to ruin all of that which has been
provided for you;
and now — now you defy us.
And the sound of the heavens fury was terrible to hear;
and the smell of death was everywhere, mingled with the foul
smell of sweat and blood,
and laden with the pitiful cries for mercy.
Yet there was no pity.

But on the mountain with eyes still haughty and arms outstretched
stood the man,
for the tumult did not remove him.
So the winds came
and blew the darkness away from the sky;
with vampire fingers and ghoulish glee
it pryed under all things and hurled them savagely
in all directions,
and nothing was free from its frenzy.
Yet the man still withstood the wind's icy touch and still defied.
Now the elements called upon the waters
with desperation and hope;
and the waters heard within its mighty home,
and answered.
Then giant swells crashed and pounded as
if drunk and maddened,
and their spray flew like froth from the lips
of a mad dog,
and then with the fury of the mob
it hurled itself upon the earth.
Up mountains, down valleys, over buildings
it tore;
digging, biting and clawing with the fangs of death,
no more was there life.
Yet on the mountain summit, wet and slimy stood the man,
for the brind had not the power to budge him.
And the heavens cried,
and for days washed the earth with their tears
so that the earth was cleansed
and there was no more fUth.
Then the heavens and nature, in one,
submitted.
Safe from his place of hiding in the mountain came forth a single
little man;
He laughed as he patted his big lead statue as it stood as always
with arms outstretched and mouth sneering.
Yes, it was qxiite a trick.
Down the mountain he went,
exultant, awaiting his fame and glory.
But there was nothing; no one to praise him.
He was superior all right
Then from somewhere beyond the heavens came a glow,
a wondrous warmth;
and a warm breath blew over the earth as an unseen hand restored
the breath of life.
And the sun shone and the waters flowed
and the earth began again.

Brent House
Ketchum House
A quick walk down the corridors of the newest
House at T.C.S., before even entering any of
the rooms, can tell you a lot about the kind of
people who live here. The avant-garde sounds
pouring out of every record player in the House,
the paintings interspersed throughout — these
indicate the presence of a progressive "with-it"
population.
The House is well named after Dr. Philip
Ketchum, the last headmaster of T.C.S. whose
perpetual youthful and vigorous spirit lives on in
Ketchum House. The vast window space and the
bright, colourful rooms reflect the spirit of buoyant
optimism which characterizes the House.
Dr. Ketchum once said, "With so many boy
friends, it is perhaps no wonder that I have
never really grown up and am still silly enough
to think of riding motorcycles, and flying air-
craft and playing team games, and loving adven-
ture" — Ketchum House is adventurous.
Largely responsible for the youthfulness of
Ketchum House are Mr. Lawson and Mr.
MacDonald, whose contagious enthusiasm and
boundless energy are helping to make Ketchum
the most exciting House at the School.
In his leaving speech. Dr. Ketchum said: "I
believe that every one of us is called to play a
certain part in life: there is a destiny which
shapes our ends, and life is an exciting adven-
ture." Ketchum House could not be better suited
to carry out this important function.
Brent, the fun house, has kept up with the
forward trend of the school; there are no cob-
webs in the corners — at least, none of the other
three houses have found them!
There have been some physical changes in
the house, too — a darkroom in the basement
(in spite of violent protests from Newell), as well
as an arty common room. A cigarette machine
has not been installed in the room by the elevator.
All rooms have been carpeted, except for 101.
Palmer and Chunk still maintain that Mr. Pratt
took their carpeting for his office. There are now
less New Boys in each of the dorms, and the
cell-like appearance has gone with the partitions.
Mike Herman says that all the new furniture was
taken from his room because Mr. Hargraft
learned who was to live in it.
Mr. Hargraft is again Housemaster, and has
converted his office into a theatre for underground
films. Mr. Corbett still resides in Top Brent. With
the completion of Ketchum House, the sidewalk
assassin has four more floors in which to lurk
around.
Many people have feared that the rapid foun-
ding of Bickle and Ketchum Houses in quick
succession has severly drained Brent of her brigh-
ter lights. Not so . . . Ox is still being "groovy"
on middle flat . . . the Ding has been joined by a
Dong . . . Kayler and Vines are having imoffi-
cial sleep-ins and keeping the Mafia alive . . .
Weir is busily trying to drown Ambrose by
arranging his fluidic computer to have a short
circuit . . . Grommet is alive and well in top
flat . . . and the spirit of Brent House lives on.
Biclcle House
Since its birth as a full-fledged house at T.C.S.
in September of last year, Bickle has developed
a unique personality of its own.
It is the belief of this particular member of
Bickle House, that it is the only house in the
School which successfully combines achievement
with humour.
It has often been said that the architecture of
a building reflects the nature of the people who
live in it . . .
Bickle House (at least the new section,) is
modern and very functional. Unlike other houses,
it is neither a copy of a Hilton Hotel, nor a victim
of the poor insulating methods used fifty years
ago.
It's architecture appropriately has a certain
dignity combined with an easy-going approach
and a sense of humour which has become the
Bickle trademark, and which leaves its stamp
on all its members — from the highest echelons
down to the most servile New Boy.
Indeed, a witness to this is the existence of
such stalwart institutions as the Bickle House
Riot Squad (with the able assistance of the invin-
cible Quantimi Bear), and the Bickle House
Fire- Fighting Squad, led by Summo Stu Raynor
— unprecedented examples of selfless community
spirit and service.
Perhaps the biggest factor in the formation of
Bickle's character is our most revered House-
master, Mr. Burns. By no means "short" on
judgement, ability or respect accorded him by the
boys, he is the man responsible, above all, for
making Bickle the School's real fun house.
The key to the character of Bickle House
lies in the response of its members to the age-old
question — "Do you want to be a man or a
mouse?"
The answer, though surprising to those not
familiar with the workings of Bickle House, is a
happy combination of the two!
Bethune House
Bethune, the twice-as-much-fun house, has
adopted a dynamic new policy to keep step with
the other three houses: not having a dynamic
policy.
Due to circumstances well beyond the control
of the occupants, there have been some changes
in the noble building. Rumour has it that they
are actually going to patch up the holes in the
wall of Room 205 . . . and also move the ther-
mostat from Mr. Piatt's widow's walk so the
occupants of the house are not roasted to a
hideous death.
Mr. Bishop still is living on Top Flat, and Mr.
Pratt has a remodelled apartment extending into
Trinity House. Mr. Maclnnes is guarding the
west door on Bottom Flat from attacks by the
local chaps.
The basement has traditionally been the hub
of life of the School; there is the Record Room,
and the Common Room, which serves as a suit-
able location for the venting of sadistic tendencies
upon New Boys. And the Rental Room, which
has the finest collection of football pads and
uniforms in Canada, kindly donated by the
Eganville Ladies Guild in 1891. Also, the House
lounge will get under way as soon as the urinals
have been removed.
Bethune has managed to retain the best of
both worlds in that fine tradition has been moulded
with the new attitude of the School.

The Pat Moss Camp
Being a counsellor at the Pat Moss Camp this
summer was one of the greatest experiences of
my life. While it was in progress we could only
count the days and hours still to go. Yet now
that it is all over I realize that I enjoyed every
minute of it. I even feel, and I am not along in
this feeling, that it would be great fun to do it
again this summer.
I can think back to the times when we were
awakened by a cream in the middle of the night
when a boy had fallen out of the top bunk. We
had to get up and turn those tears into a smile
and put the boy back to bed. I can remember
the day when Vance and Craig, after a fight with
Ronny, decided to walk home to Toronto. We
managed to halt them by bribing them with a
coke Aree miles from camp. I can remember the
day when Kenny took ten pieces of meat for his
sandwich, the day Mr. Baker ordered a search
for a stolen watch and instead found four bottles
of beer, the day the boys spent aU morning
hunting for frogs and decided in the afternoor
that it would be fun to stab them to death and
did so (aU twenty-four of them).
The boys, twelve in all (nine negro, three
white) arrived at the camp on August the tenth.
Some proved to be introverts, some extroverts;
but all of them resented any kind of discipline.
Nearly all of them were scarred by burns and
scrapes caused by mishaps and arguments at
home. One boy only had one set of clothes for
his stay of ten days. Sure, they were all different,
but one word can sum them all up: they were
aU underprivileged.
Over the period of ten days, with the counsel-
lors doing iheii best to play the part of father
and big brother all at once, the boys began to
change. They ceased to oppose authority so much
and began to gain son.e semblance of manners.
Most important of all, they began to feel that
somebody cared about them. With this feeling
that somebody was concerned about them, they
began to gain a sense of security. They ceased
to attack you and instead, showed affection. They
would wrap their arm around you at a campfire,
ask to hold your flashlight, or ask to wear your
hat or jacket. Perhaps they would come to you
and ask you for help in cutting a fishing rod.
Not only did the boys receive love at the
camp, but they had fun, too. Every day a convoy
of vehicles would leave the camp after lunch and
proceed to Rice Lake to fish, swim and ride
horses. We would return to camp for supper,
then pull out once more to go to the Schulz'
pool or to a movie. Before returning to camp, we
would often descend upon the Dairy Queen for a
milk shake or a sundae.
You may consider that it's nice getting these
kids out of downtown Toronto and giving them
a good time and playing father to them, but
what happens when they return home? Won't
they only learn to despise the SLffiuent sector of
society, having had a taste of what money can
do?
I hope to God that this will not be the case!
I believe as do others, that the result of an
experience like the Pat Moss Camp is the partial
breaking down of a barrier between the privileged
and the underprivileged. The youngsters see
perhaps for the first time, that there are people
outside of their social bracket who care about
them. If we see these boys a couple of times each
year for several years and keep in touch with
them after that, we may be able to curb some of
the hate and jealousy which builds up in them.
We may even be able to help them to help them-
selves and perhaps others.
The Pat Moss Club is such a small effort
where such a large one is needed. But even if
little improvement is achieved, it is an involve-
ment The lives of a few boys are made happier
for a few days every year. Those who participate
are exposed to human miser>' and deprivation
and in a few days have a glimpse of
what Christian love could mean to the whole
world.
Let's all participate and make the Pat Moss
Camp '69 the best yet.

The Governor-General at T.C.S.
The day broke cool, crisp and sunny. It
marked the official opening of the new buildings,
after six years of planning and many dollars
worth of construction; it marked the start of a
new era at T.C.S.
An enthusiastic and keen Guard of Honour
hurried to form their clean and shining ranks
after many hours of spit and polish. Soon the
Governor-General walked up the long double
aisle of Boulden House boys and was greeted
by the Headmaster amid frantic clickings of
cameras. The Honour Guard, under the efficient
leadership of Jon Dreyer was then inspected by
the Governor-General.
Shortly after there was a Service of Thanks-
giving in the Chapel; also present were the Most
Reverend William Wright, Archbishop of Algona,
and The Right Reverend George B. Snell, the
Bishop of Toronto, who preached an excellent
sermon on manners and honesty. Following the
service, the Governor-General's party moved to
Ketchum House where His Elxcellency unveiled
WiLCM
■,mvc'L
a portrait of the late Dr. Ketchum. He then
inspected the house, from the lowliest dormitory
to Mr. Lawson's apartment
The official party then moved to the site of the
unveiling of a plaque commemorating the open-
ing of the new buildings. Mr. Scott delivered a
short speech on the planning and construction ot
the new buildings. Bishop Snell led a prayer of
dedication and His Excellency officially opened
the million dollar classroom wing.
Following the opening, the official party toured
the buildings, ending in the new gym. In his
speech there, the Governor-General suggested to
the Headmaster a full holiday for the school,
asking that it be inserted so to remind the boys
of his visit.
In the afternoon a number of demonstrations
went on around the school; in the physics labs,
the swimming pool, and the language lab the
boys of T.C.S. displayed their various skills.
Every boy was in some way involved in these
demonstrations. So ended the Governor-General's
visit, marking the opening of the new buildings,
and with it, a new era for T.C.S.

INTERVIEWS
Mr. Stevenson
Q — Why did you leave Scotland?
A — I needed a change of country and school,
having taught at the Glasgow Academy for eight
years. Also, the climate of Scotland varies tre-
mendously, one never knows what to expect,
whereas the seasons here are definite.
Q — How did you hear of T.C.S.?
A — T.C.S. has a reputation in Great Britain,
or should I say that many people know of it
I talked to a number of them about the school,
and I liked what I heard.
Q — What do you think of the New Boy system?
A — Right now, I don't resdly understand it as I
don't play a part in the running of it I imagine
that a prefect must have to be a responsible
person to handle his fags well. A misunderstan-
ding between the two parties might prove to be
disastrous, but as of yet I have no complaints
about the system.
Q — How do you like the food?
A — It's quite good. Fd say it's about the same
quality as the Glasgow Academy.
Q — Have you had any experience with Fire
Fighting?
A — No, none at all. I was asked to do it and
of course, I accepted the job. I understand that
many schools do this sort of thing and with a
little help from the local squad, it should be quite
successful.
Mr. Maclnnes
Q — What arethegreatdifferencesbetween T.C.S.
and the better English boarding schools?
A — Well, I think that the so-called barriers are
being broken down in the more traditional
schools. For example, at Clifton in Bristol, there
is a club in which boys can get beer, cider, and
non-alcoholic beverages and are allowed to take
their girls to the club, which is open six times a
week. These schools also seem to offer the student
much more spare time than we have. In addition,
the staffs of these schools are more diversified
and consequently can offer a large scope of
courses and activities.
Q-
us?
Are the students of the U. K. different from
A — I taught in schools where kids looked for-
ward to class and expected to learn something
and organized themselves accordingly. If they
weren't taught something, they gave you hell.
Here, they tend to give you absolute hell on
general principle. Here, students seem to endure
school rather than enjoy it!
Q — Do you think the attitude taken by some of
the students here is created by their environment?
A — You can say that it is this school's fault but
it's not this school's fault at all. It's probably
the fault of the schools they attended between the
vital ages of one and twelve. Perhaps, the feeling
of lethargy which pervades here does nothing to
inspire the student on to more creative work. The
curriculum could be altered to include the more
interesting aspects of each subject, but on the
whole it is the student's interest in the school
itself which has to be dealt with. This would
involve the changing of the entire workings of
the school which at this moment seems impos-
sible.
Q — Are you in favour of co-educationad boar-
ding schools?
A — Yes. At Kent in Connecticut they have
established a girl's boarding school about four
miles away from the boys, but having an elevation
of some six hundred feet higher, so that they say
it is just out of cycling distance. The girls may go
down, but it is quite a sweat for the boys to cycle
up.

Mr. Wilton
Q — What was your first impression of T.C.S.?
A — I have been quite impressed with a lot of
things. In particular, the freedom which I think
you boys have. I've heard some people say that
they want more freedom. You've got a fair bit
more than your equivalent in New Zealand.
Q — Do you think this school would be better
if it were co-educational?
A — Well, I have no experience with co-ed boar-
ding schools, rd be surprised if it could function
as well as this one does.
Q — What do you think of the emphasis on
sports?
A — It isn't more than I have been acustomed
to, except perhaps your devotion to football. We're
pretty mad on rugger, but there wouldn't be any
team which would practise every afternoon and
have a game on Satxirday as weU.
Q — Did you have cadets in your last school?
A — No. They are on the wane in New Zealand.
There are very few schools left there who still do
cadets.
Mr. Redston
Q — How does T.C.S. compare to where you were
before?
A — It is similar in size and its main objectives
— to produce a balanced character. It is different
in that boys here are more out-going that at
Glenalmond. Glenalmond is in the country and
there is really no contact with other people. In
regard to the daUy routine, they are very similar,
but you seem to have far less leisure here, which
I CAN' T feel is a good thing.
Q — Do you approve of the emphasis on sports?
A — The prestige arising out of sports, in a
school like this, in competition with other schools,
is important I feel that there should be more
leisure to read and play music. I am not anti-
sports, but the balance between opportunities for
the arts and sports is disproportionate.
Q — Are sports emphasized over there as they
are over here?
A — Sports are just as emphasized, but in our
case it was rugger.
Q — What do you think of the school spirit?
A — I am surprised that there has not been more
of it out on the field.
Q — Would you liketo see more culture at T.C.S. ?
A — I'm interested in the Dramatic program and
the Debating Society which are very much Eilive.
I haven't been here long, but there seems to me
to be a poverty of interest in music and painting.
Q — What do you think of "The Record"?
A — I've read two Issues and very much enjoyed
them. One pleasure was to feel I've contradicted
myself about there being a slight lack of culture
and that there are plenty of minds alive to what
is going on outside the school orbit
Q — Do you like living in?
A — There are both advantages and disadvan-
tages. There is far less privacy, but it is an
opport\mity to know the boys better.
Q — Are you enjoying yourself at T.C.S.?
A — Yes, but I am looking forward to a good
sleep. At the moment I have no desire to pack
my bags.
Poga 44
Mr. Honey
Q — From where do you come to us?
A — From Barbados.
Q — What drew you to T.C.S.?
A — Well, we wanted to move back to Canada,
and were mo\'ing to Ontario; this seemed the best
school in Ontario, and it combined everything
we wanted: living in the country, with a decent
school to teach in, and a decent school for my
son.
Q — How would you compare T.C.S. with a
similar secondary school in Barbados?
A — WeU, the first thing is, that in Barbados the
first class schools are competitive; there are
perhaps fourteen hundred applicants for fifty
places, so entry is examination, which means that
the intellectual standard is very high, for unless
a boy is very much above average, he doesn't
get in.
But the atmosphere isn't as happy because there
is always the fear that you'll be asked to leave
and your place will be taken by someone else.
So, it is a tremendously competitive atmosphere
— boys have mental breakdowns and that sort
of thing. And the attitude of the boys to the staff
is different — it's a much more authoritarian
attitude. There is not such a friendly atmosphere
as there is here — it is much more rigid.
Q — What about the discipline and freedom of
the students here?
A — I think that students here have a lot more
choice as to what they're going to be able to do
— they're given a lot more freedom; it nught
seem very restricting, but it isn't really. There is
a tremendous amount of free choice here which
you just don't get elsewhere.
Q — How do you think we can improve our
relations with the town?
A — Not practical ones — I mean theoretically,
the only way to do it is to have a 'meeting of
the minds'. If there were more time (which there
isn't) and T.C.S. boys could do things which
involved the town and the town could do things
which involved T.C.S. this might be feasible
*-\
Mr. Robertson
Q — Do you think T.C.S. would fimction better
as a co-education school?
A — I don't know that T.C.S. would function
better. I think that girls would have a civilizing
effect on boys and vice versa. The system at
T.C.S. is new to me and it will take time to adjust
to ik I hope that I will like the system. I think that
both systems have their merits and I hope to
appreciate this one.
Q — What do you teach now?
A — I teach Latin and Russian. I learned Russian
only a few years ago. In the near future I hope
to learn French, not only because I am in Canada
but because I have always wanted to learn it.
Q — What sports do you play?
A — I play most sports. I play tenijs, golf and
rugger. In golf my ambition is to break 80 fairly
regularly. I am also eager to learn to skate.
Q — Are you married?
A — Yes. I also have three daughters.
Q — Would you like to stay at T.C.S.?
A — Yea. I fancy a stay at T.C.S., clrcvunstances
permitting. I wouldn't want to become a teaching
hobo.

The New Boy's Race
A sudden shot rang out signaling the start of
the annual New Boy's Race. A hundred New Boys
rushed across Bigside field, all hoping to win, or
at least all hoping not to come last. Paul Wilson
gained a lead at the start, and seven minutes
later his head appeared at thecrestofthe Boulden
House field, still going strong. He was cheered
across the finish line with a time of 7:49, closely
followed by Donald Davies and Luther Holten.
Finally the moment everybody had been waiting
for arrived: the last New Boy. He was uproari-
ously escorted to the finish line, running wearily
all the way.
The New Boy's Picnic
Early one Sunday morning all the New Boys
and privOeges were shipped off to the Pat Moss
Camp, cautiously dressed in old clothes. Once
everything was organized, the actual picnic star-
ted. This year represented a serious break with
tradition. Instead of the usual dunking and
fighting the group was separated into houses.
Then, all through the day hectic and brutal
games such as free ball and Buck-Buck were
played, in house teams with both New Boys and
privileges together. However, it was felt that
some games in which the New Boys could have
a chance to pit themselves against the privileges
was stUl needed. And so, there was a New Boy-
privilege tug-of-war, which the New Boys handily
won, pulling the hapless privileges into the swamp.
Soon it was time to go. The Camp was cleaned
up, crumbs eaten, and the whole crowd jammed
into the buses, muddy and smiling.
Poge 47
Of Running and Crawling
Amid rumours of chaos and confusion, arose
the traditional hallowe'en party for the New Boys.
Although secrecy has been observed on this
point, it is rumoured that the whole thing was
organized the night before. . .
The format was changed this year, since the
shindig in the pool was cut. The party in Osier
Hall was short (long enough for Paul to find the
coveted §5) and then everyone moved out behind
the barn, and lit up — the bonfire that is.
The New Boys may remember that night for
different reasons, but by the Sixth Form it will
always be remembered as the night of the massive
blunder by the Head Prefect, who, in his wisdom,
asked (not ordered) all the New Boys to fetch
some water from the school to put out the fire.
Needless to say, Kent and the boys didn't need
any other invitation and the rest of the night was
spent running (by the privOeges), chasing (by
the New Boys ). We give credit to Sculthorpe who
ran a long way, with a lot of water, and doused
German.
It's a hard choice, but the highlight of the
night may have been the obstacle course which,
after one hour of grueling work, was won by
Brent, who handily happened to have (Jeoff
Scott in their ranks.
To the new boys — a little reminder — WE
HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN!

Brief Biographies
Robin Bell (63-68)
A tremendous competitive spirit and an imagi-
native, creative mind werethe most evident factors
of "Hungerford" at T.C.S. His competitiveness
not only gave him Bigside colours in football,
basketball and rugger (captainship in both bas-
ketbaU and rugger), but also made him a deter-
mined, fiery fighter. Perhaps these qualities made
Robin the real leader among a team of leaders
and which gained him a distinction cap in rug-
ger. His laurels did not end athletically. Intellec-
tually, Robin's achievements did not include
coming first in his class or being a diligent
student. Bell was a trend-setter. The Christmas
play was a Bell production which was the first
concrete result of the "New Left". Bell was a
dominating factor in the formation of the school
newspaper "The Ivory Tower". Robin's creative
writing can be seen in any one of last year's
issues of "The Record". R.C.H. truly set the trend
for the new type of "all-around" student
Bruce Cameron (65-68)
Bruce came to the school in his Fourth Form
year. Although never very energetic, he was by
no means vegetating, for he contributed greatly
to both Middleside Football and Middleside
Hockey. Around the school he was always rather
quiet . . .? (we will always remember that pink
shirt he used to wear to Chapel), and could
usually be seen loafing around in jeans contem-
plating the system from under a pile of hair.
Bruce and "Chad" were frequently encountered by
parties of smokers making their escape through
the bottom Bickle windows where he happened
to room. Bruce, a very frank and popular person
was appointed to House Officership in his Sixth
Form year. We wish him the best of luck this
year at Queens.
Poge 49
David Camp (65-68)
From the moment Dave arrived at T.C.S. in
Third Form he stood out among his peers as an
exceptionally gifted boy. A superb athlete, he
started off his career by winning the New Boy's
Race and The McGee Cup. He went onto become
vice-captain of Bigside Football as well as it's
most valuable player. In the Spring, he won the
Senior Aggregate prize. In his Sixth Form year
he won Distinction Caps in both football and
rugger. But Dave was not only an athlete; he
made an equally valuable contribution to the
intellectual life at T.C.S. He became a fine debater,
receiving a Debating Tie. In addition, he was a
founding editor of the "Ivory Tower" and a very
efficient business manager for "The Record".
And yet, although David had many admirers,
he had few close friends. Perhaps he was too
strong a leader, or merely too mature an indivi-
dual to be on familiar terms with most of the
boys. Three successful years as a counsellor at
the Pat Moss Camp demonstrated clearly his
ability to understand and handle other people
well. In recognition of these facets, he was made
a Fifth Form House Officer and would undoub-
tedly have been given an even higher post had
he stayed. But after much soul-searching, David
found that he had out-grown T.C.S. His values
and goals directed him into fields which T.C.S.
could no longer satisfy. He decided to go to
Neuchatel, in Switzerland, and we at T.C.S. wish
him the best of luck.
Duart Campbell (62-68)
Since his arrival in Boulden House, Dewey
was always a source of great entertainment to
his fellow students, for he had an imperturbable
and humourous attitude towards School life.
Indeed, in his Sixth Form year he proved to be
the most unabashed member of C. E.
Athletically, Dewey was very successful.
Steadily working his way up through the teams,
he managed to obtain three First Team Colours
in his final year. In the first term he made great
contribution to Bigside Football; he was one of
the first to receive a top award for skiing, and
in the summer term dedicated his cricketing skills
for the greater glory of the pitch and Mr. Corbett.
We shall always remember Dewey as he was,
showing both skill on the playing field and regard
and leadership among his fellows.
Page 50
Mike Chadwick (65-68)
"Chad" contributed to T.C.S. in a most vital
but peculiar way. He participated in sports —
soccer, Mlddleside basketball, and cricket, and
was one of the leading science students of 6A
But these are not the things we remember about
Mike. He was one of the boys most responsible
for high morale at the School. Whether at the
bench, or at the Tuck Shop, the near screech of
"Chad" would be heard. In his position of Head
of Photography, which he ably filled, or as an
Executive of the Dramatic Club, Chad was always
causing a laugh. Best of luck to him in future
escapades.
f I
James Cheesman (63-68)
Jim came to us from the hallowed halls of
Boulden House, and was perhaps one of the
quietest people at the School. Only the "ah-sooo"
cry with which he was greeted in the halls gave
his presence away. But Jim was also one of the
most dependable people around, and his good
humour never let him down.
Jim was not a brilliant athlete, but he was a
willing one. He played soccer, basketball and
league cricket throughout his stay here, receiving
Half-Bigside colours in soccer and basketball in
his last year. During the spring term he ably
scored for Bigside Cricket. However, Jim partici-
pated in a number of extracurricular activities,
including photography, the Dramatics Society
and the make-up crew. He played the trombone
in the Concert Band and was a member of the
Choir. In his Sixth form year he was appointed
assistant head Librarian. In return for his wort
for the School, Jim was appointed a House
Officer. We wish him much luck in the future.
Chris Cragg (65-68)
Chris started his career at T.C.S. by making
the Bigside Swimming team his first year, and
over the years became one of the most valuable
members of the team. For this he received Bigside
Colours in his last two years. "Crazy" sdso
played Mlddleside Football and was a member
of the Track team.
Chris was always a conscientious worker
during his stay here. This hard work payed off
in his Sixth Form year when he received the
Peter Lewis Medal for science.
In spite of eing one of the less boiserous
members of the school, Chris participated in many
areas of school activities, including the Choir.
We wish him luck in his endeavours.

John Carsley (64-68) School Prefect
It is not worthwhile listing John's ability to
engage in drama, sports and writing — these
facts are well-known. However, it is worthwhile
to engage in a study of character; JohnCarsley's
somewhat rebellious and creative spirit marked
him out as a new kind of boy, a new kind of
Prefect. A desire to excell in endeavours — espe-
cially in the creative field — led John to high
stages of competence and artistry.
A thorough knowledge of history and literary
styles enabled him to establish formidable charac-
ter roles on stage and formulate his unique
fables, well-known in the "Ivory Tower".
He was sometimes restless with his surround-
ings, but by constant involvement in affairs
around him, he managed to achieve a busy kind
of occupied happiness which propelled him
through the years and on to greater things.
Bob Cowley (63-68) School Prefect
Although Bob was a little roly-poly to begin
with, he soon made his presence known on the
playing fields, both in Boulden House and in
the Senior School. In spite of his unwillingness to
move fast, he attacked whatever he tried with
great vigour. In sports, he gained Bigside Colours
in both Football and Cricket, and received the
'Most Improved Player' award in his Fifth Form
year. 'Bubba' participated vigorously in Political
Science, being elected President of both clubs. He
was a strong debater, receiving a Debating Tie
in recognition of his L. B.F. efforts. The Quacks,
the French Club, the Pat Moss Club, sub-editor
of The Record; Bob had his finger in just about
every pie. In view of his leadership qualities,
Bob was appointed a School Prefect He is now
at Trinity College, where we wish him luck.
Murray Finloyson (65-68)
Murray entered the School in Fourth Form
and soon became an enthusiastic member of
T.C.S. Murray added his talents in music to the
life of the School as a boy in the Choir and First
Trumpet in the Concert Band. In his Fifth Form
year he became manager of Bigside Football;
a difficult job which he carried out well. Murray
held responsible positions back stage in our
play productions and was instrumental in their
successes. In Sixth Form, as a House Officer,
Murray continued to give his best to the life at
Trinity. Although not athletically inclined due to
a physical handicap, Murray was a deeply
determined person who in his own distinctive
way, added a lot to our School.

Page 52
Mark Frostad (62-68) School Prefect
Although Mark did not excel athletically in
Boulden House, he shone in the Senior School,
playing Bigside Football, Bigside Hockey, and
Bigside Rugger. In his last year, Mark received
a Distinction Cap in both football and rugger.
Mark was never one for clubs. He developed,
however, into a better than mediocre soul singer
and sang at many School dances.
If Mark was competitive in sports, he was a
prize-fighter academically. Not being over-
endowed in this field, he was forced to study long
hours. However, Mark knew where he wanted to
go and fought for it. He was appointed a School
Prefect. His year was made when he was accepted
to Princeton University. Good luck to him and
his harmonica.
Currie Gardner (63-68)
Entering the ranks in Boulden House, Currie
developed a love of electronics which began to
blossom upon his entrance to the Senior School:
in Grade Ten he managed to launch a hamster
to the stupendous altitude of twenty feet.
He showed inherent responsibility as he took
over the jobs of doing the electrical arrangements
for School functions, plays and the dances, and
did a highly commendable job with the video-
tape machine.
Although not athletically inclined, Currie con-
tributed as much as many with his filming of
the football games, which proved to be an invalu-
able aid. Both on the league ballfield and in the
swimming pool he exhibited his good cheer.
On Speech Day he received a Special Award
for outstanding contribution to the School. We
wish Currie all the best, wherever his footsteps
may lead him.
John Greey (62-68)
Although "Goon" was a quiet member of the
student body, he was a happy one. No matter
what happened, one could be sure John had a
smile on his lips.
Not very athletically inclined, John was never-
theless, a squash player and a persevering mem-
ber of League Football. In the Spring, he played
tennis.
If John was not athletically inclined, he was
academically, being a member of the "A" form
every year at T.C.S. For his contributions to the
School, John was appointed a House Officer in
his Sixth Form year. We wish "Goon" the best
of luck in the future.
Page 53
Kevin Haffey (62-68)
"K-C", for his small size, was a veritable
powerhouse. The "fiery fenian" could be found
mixed up in anything you care to name, from
Bigside Football, where he earned Half-Colours,
to Middleside Basketball, where he earned full
colours for t^vo years. "Parva" was an old hand
at good pranks, adding a touch of mischief to
the "midnight scene" in the dining hall.
More seriously, Kevin was an all-around boy.
He partook of athletics in an enthusiastic manner,
and kept his studies above average at the same
time. Like most others, he misread school rules
to fit the situation, but just the same, he never
let things get out of hand. Our Frenchman is
now at York University, where we wish him much
luck.
f
Ross Hanbury (64-68)
Ross was not a member of the New Left or
the Old Right. He was himself.
Not very athletic, Ross' forte was his acade-
mics. Throughout his career at T.C.S., he^was a
first-rate student, being a member of the "A" set
from first to last. In the first term League Foot-
ball was graced by his presence, and later the
squash court. In the Spring, Ross did a good job
scoring for Bigside Cricket. For his services to
the school, he was appointed a House Officer.
Although a very quiet person, Ross was a
truly sincere one. We wish him luck.
Arthur Kaminis (64-68)
There are some people whose inborn love of
life will never fail to bring a sense of fun and
joy to all those with whom they come into contact.
Art was such a person; his boisterous sense of
humour, his quick and varied enthusiasms, and
his keen interest in people made him a valued
companion and one of the most popular charac-
ters at the School.
One of Arthur's important contributions to the
spirit of T.C.S. was his role as School Match-
maker. Indeed, few individuals have been so
instrumental in cementing our relationships with
the various girls' schools across Canada.
As a sportsman. Art's main talents lay in
tennis and squash, which he played admirably,
earning Bigside Colours in both these games
early in his career at T.C.S.
In his last year at the School, Art also graced
the playing fields of Middleside football, inwnich
he also earned Colours. As co-editor of the School
News section of The Record, Art brought his
usual life and vitality to a section which could
have been rather dull.
We wish the "peon" the very best of luck in
his native land of sunny Mexico, where he is
now attending university.
Poge 54
Kim Lambert (65-68)
Kim first cunie to the School in Fourth Form.
He soon made his mark on the School by playing
Littleside Basketball where he was Vice-captain
and won his Colours. The next two winters Kim
played very ably on the First Basketball Team
earning full Bigside Colours both years.
Kim was one of the original soccer players
when soccer was first revived. He played two years
on the First Soccer team for which he received
Middleside and Half-Bigside Colours, and was
Vice-captain in his Sixth Form year.
Kim was an active member of the Jen society,
and his colourful imagination made him one of
its leading personalities.
He was also active in Debating, and for two
years was a member of the Pat Moss Club. In
his Sixth Form year he was appointed a House
Officer.
But Kim will not be remembered for his
activities within the School. He will be remembered
for his constant fight against 'summer blossom-
ings' and the ' Establishment'. We wish him good
luck in the future.
f
John Lewis (63-68)
John Lewis was one of the most different and
colourful people in School. His artisitc talents,
ranging from his writings as the Deacon to
painting envelopes, brightened up many a day.
John contributed more to the School than this
however. As co-captain of Middleside Basketball
he added spirit to each game. As a member of
the Middleside Football team, he was awarded
colours. He was awarded Bigside Cricket colours
in his last year for his fine bowling. Behind the
scenes, John worked as an Assistant Head Libra-
rian. He was also a member of the Senior Political
Science and the Art Club.
We wish John the best of luck in freaking out
his future endeavours at John Hopkins Univer-
sity.
Eric Machum (64-68)
Eric arrived in Third Form and immediately
proved himselfa master of non-academic pastimes
in the School. He soon began his "rent-a-date"
system which swung into operation weeks before
every dance at T.C.S. Besides renting dates,
'Grubber' was busy swimming to three years of
Bigside Colours, ending with the captaincy of
the team. Also a football player, Eric received
Bigside Colours in his last two years. But then-
were other pies for 'Grubber'. Hewas a Sacristan,
and a member of the Choir.
'Grubber' is now at the University of Americas
and is no doubt emersing himself in the local life
with the same ardour that he always displayed
about T.C.S. We wish him luck.
Poge SS
Rodney McLaren (65-68)
Rodney came to Trinity in Fourth Form and
soon adjusted himself and Trinity to his way of
life. He participated in numerous sports, gaining
Middleside Colours in football and Bigside Col-
ours in skiing. He triumphed in rugger in his
Sixth Form — everybody had heard of the
Savage Seven. He was appointed a House Officer
in his Sixth Form year, in recognition of his
services to the School. Rod has gone to Guelph,
where his sense of humour will, no doubt, be
appreciated. We wLU always miss seeing Rodney
wearing his dingo boots and jean jacket
John McCollum (64-68) Head Prefect
As soon as he arrived at T.C.S., John began
to build a solid base upon which his later accom-
plishments were to be built. Academically, he
consistently stood at the head of the "A" Form.
In the field of debating he quickly distinguished
himself; he debated in three L. B. F. matches during
his career at T.C.S., and in his final year was
elected President of Debating. Though not,
perhaps, a natural athlete, John worked hard
on those games which he enjoyed, and received
Bigside Colours in both Tennis and Squash in
his last year. After a very successful year as
Business Manager of "The Record" in Fifth
Form, he went on to become Editor-in-Chief the
next year. Under John's leadership "The Record"
adopted an exciting new format which had the
enthusiastic approval of nearly everyone at the
School.
As time went on, John's leadership abilities
became apparent, and he was appointed a Fifth
Form House Officer. The next year he was
appointed Head Prefect; in this post his strength
and natural persuasiveness soon earned him the
respect of almost every boy at T. C. S. John had
definite ideas about the running of the School,
and because he always presented his ideas in a
logical, thoughful, and responsible manner, he
was able to leave a substantial mark on the
School.
John's academic brilliance had become a
school byword, and it surprised no one when he
walked off with a large number of the academic
prizes at the end of his Sixth Form year. John
was, not unexpectedly, accepted by every uni-
versity to which he applied. He finally decided
on Cambridge in England. We at T.C.S. have
no doubt that John will distinguish himself there,
and we only hope that others will be able to
derive as much benefit from his outstanding
quedides as we have.

Hunter McDonald
' Hunna' was one of those types that was not
what could be called a public figure. He did not
gravitate to any clique or spend his time on
preoccupations. He spent his time working, devo-
ting time and energy to the School, and carrying
out his responsibility with unusual poise.
Hunna was athletically active, playing a good
solid game in both basketball and football. He
obtained his Bigside Colours.
He was known for the lesser things at the
School — such as a decided preference for white
sugar. The School needs more people like un-
assuming " Hunna'.
Don Mclntyre (63-68)
Don arrived at T.C.S. in time to spend a year
at Boulden House. Although not too successful
at sports, he made a name for himself in the
various leagues. An avid skier, he hit the slopes
of Kirby many times. Later, during the Spring
term, he was a member of the tennis team.
Although Don was not the most outgoing
person in the School, he was a loyal member of
T.C.S., evidenced by his support of the school
mascot for two years, Fred. It is Fred's picture
we see to the right. Good luck to Don in the
future.
Dick McClernon (62-68) School Prefect
Dick's resounding guffaw could be heard
throughout the School from the First to the Sixth
Form. His aggressiveness and willingness to serve
soon made him a leader. This was recognized in
Boulden House where he was made a"C'' dormer
and in the Senior School where he was appointed
a School Prefect and Head of Brent House.
Dickie was a very balanced member of the
School, always a member of the "A" Form and
four times a captain of School teams. He was in
the Debating Executive, a member of Political
Science, and the Editor of the mighty "On Cam-
pus" section of "The Record" which flourished
under his practical sense of humour. Athletically,
he played football all the way up, receiving
Bigside Colours in his last year. Dick, as a true
representative from Montreal, captained Middle-
side Hockey and in the last term played Bigside
Cricket, receiving half-Bigside Colours. His lea-
dership qualities stood him in good stead when
Dick was criticized for his stand in Cadets. But
he persevered and Bret House won the Cadet
Cup. We wish Dick luck at McGill and McGill
luck with Dick.

Mike McLoughlin (62-68)
Mike entered Boulden House and wasted no
time in establishing himself as a cricket player
and a leader of others. Although Mike was not
an exceptionally strong student, he studied for
long hours. Mike's ability to lead others was
confirmed when he was appointed to "C" dormi-
tor>'.
Entering the Senior School, Mike continued to
persevere in his academic studies as well as join-
ing various clubs. Although Mike found difficul-
ties in his studies during his senior year, he
received his Bigside Colours in cricket as well as
two bats for exceptionally fine batting. Mike also
did an excellent job captaining Middleside Foot-
ball.
We wish Mike the best possible luck at Lake-
field where he is now continuing his senior
matriculation as a Junior Master.
Bruce McPherson (64-68)
When Bruce first entered Boulden House in
Second Form, he was asked whether or not he
participated in sports. His reply was "I'll give it
a whirl". This so called "whirl" was one of the
best whirls in the history of T.C.S. In recognition
of his leadership, he was made a member of "C"
dormitory.
In the Senior School, Bruce again established
himself as an outstanding athlete. He played
three years on Bigside Hockey, in his last year
being Assistant Captain. After one year on Middle-
side Football, Bruce went to Bigside where he
enjoyed two outstanding years. Bruce was elected
to the Student Council and was a member of
Pat Moss. Besides being an outstanding athlete,
Bruce received numerous awards including the
Magee Cup for the best New Boy and the best
second year boy. In Fifth Form he was made a
House Officer.
Although Bruce was not a strong student, his
constant long hours of hitting the books proved
to be enough to successfully get him through each
year. One outstanding attribute in Bruce's charac-
ter was his willingness to help anybody at any-
time. It is unfortunate that T.C.S. did not fit
Bruce's needs. We wish him the best of luck at
Ryerson.

Dave Merrifield (63-68)
"Toots" began his five year stay at T. C.S.
in Boulden House where his happy-go-lucky
attitude flourished. His New Boy year was off
to a good start later, when he finished second
in the New Boys' Race. In the Senior School
he sounded the tuba in the Concert Band, and
started his wide and varied acting career which
was to continue throughout his stay.
Athletically, "Toots" won Bigside Colours in
football, and was a member of the Track Team.
In recognition of his services to the School, he
was appointed House Officer. We will miss his
booming voice on Sundays and his cheerful
grim, and wish him luck in the future.
Tom Molson (63-68)
Tom, tucked away in the dark recesses of
Trinity House, may not have been in the lime-
light, but as he himself once said, "In the Sixth
Form I enjoyed being the most irresponsible
Fourth Former. It was a gas."
Arriving in Boulden House, Tom rapidly
became accustomed to the School — or was it
vice-versa? In his New Boy year he did excep-
tionally well in the Oxford Cup and was a
co-winner of the highly covted Magee Cup. Tom's
sporting efforts resulted in Bigside Colours in
skiing in his Sixth Form year. A House Officer,
he also contributed gready to the Choir, was a
co-head of a Hecord department, and instituted
a campaign to weed out metaphors.
We wish Tom and his potted geraniums the
best of luck as they invade Trinity College.
Steve Morley (63-68)
To the outsider, it might have seemed that Steve
was not a very colourful character. But in reality
he was an extremely true and loyal person,
dedicated to the School as very few are.
Steve was not an academic wonder, nor was
he an athletic one. But he was very balanced
in his pursuits, being a Sacristan, a photographer
and a member of the "Electric Rope Blues Band".
He played on every football team as well as
playing hockey, basketball and cricket, winning
Bigside Colours in his last year.
For his services to the School, Steve was
made a House Officer in Sixth Form. We at T.C.S.
will remember the sight of Steve, slinging his
ever present guitar and/or camera over
his shoulder.

Peter Newell (62-68)
Peter arrived at T.C.S. and started off in the
more artisitc activities of the school. He was an
artist, an avid chess player, and a member of
the Senior Political Science Club. As a member
of the Dramatics Club, he proved himself to be
an apt and enthusiastic actor, playing parts in a
great many of the school productions. Pete never
went far in sports, but as a member of league
he was a hard worker. We are sure that he will
succeed in the future.
Lawton Osier (63-68)
' Butch' arrived in Boulden House just in time
to make it into the infamous "D" dorm. In the
Senior School he participated in football, gym-
nastics, and rugger, winning Middleside Colours
in his last year. If ' Butch' was not very success-
ful in athletics, he fought with a spirit which is
uncommon, and was always willing to go the
extra step. For this he won the Inglis Cup for
Keenness in Athletics. Lawton also was a Sacri-
stan and Crucifer.
'Butch', one of the perennieds at T.C.S., will
be missed by many of us.
Bob Ramsay (62-68) School Prefect
Beginning in Boulden House, and continuing
through to the Sixth Form, Bob did not pursue
the usual route taken by a T.C.S. boy. His small
size and gregarious nature singled him out from
much larger boys.
Bob made up for his small size by his fire. In
every sport he tried, he excelled, winning Bigside
Colours in squash and cricket, and Half- Bigside
in soccer. In addition, he was a triple captain
in his last year of these sports.
Bob also excelled intellectually. He was Sports
Editor of "The Record", a member of Political
Science, and the Steward of the Debating Society.
For these achievements, for his leadership in all
things, and for his services to the School, he was
appointed a School Prefect. Last, but certainly
not least. Bob was known throughout the School
for his razor sharp wit; never lacking ingenious
arguments or often sardonic but always penetra-
ting comments, he was a welcome addition to
the 'bull session'. His red kinky hair and his
perpetual guffaw will be missed by many of us.

Peter Raymont (66-68)
It did not take long after his arrival at T.C.S.
In Fifth Form for our school to learn that Peter
Raymont was no crowd voUower. Indeed, his
insistence on remaining an individual, even in
the face of extreme pressure, eventually earned
him the respect of nearly everyone at T.C.S. Aa
a very concientious House Officer, Peter insisted
on doing things his own way, and, as a result,
would up being one of the best the school has
seen for a long time.
In his two years at the School, Peter was able
to make a substantial contribution to its athletic
life, winning Middleside Colours in Football and
Bigside Colours at basketball. However, track
was Peter's favourite sport, which is not surpris-
ing considering the individual effort needed in
that sport.
Peter was also an L.B.F. debater, and was
one of the most interesting members of the Senior
Political Science Club.
But we will remember Peter for his dear,
strong voice which added greatiy to school dances
and the general entertainment It was largely
because of him that the Folk Mass was so
successful.
In spite of his refusal to conform, Peter cared
deeply about T.C.S. He took an interest in the
Building Programme and was always a source
of ideas for the school. We wiU miss Peter greatiy,
and wish him luck at Queen's.
Brian Rippin (62-68)
Brian was a two-year veteran of Boulden
House and a rotund member of that football
team. By the time he arrived on Middle Flat
Bethune he had made his prodigious size felt
playing for Middleside Football. In his final year
his size, a littie more prodigious still, helped him
get Bigside Colours for football. The winter term
saw him playing for 'Jack's Flyers' with more
grace than one would have expected from him.
During his years at T.C.S., Brian exercised his
considerable wit and size as a member of the
Stage Crew.
We will miss the better half of Rippintodd,
but we wish him luck in the future.

David Ross (64-68)
David arrived at T.C.S. as a Third Form
New Boy, fromRiode Janeiro, and soon involved
himself in school life in general, playing League
Football, and becoming a member of the Drama-
tics, Woodworking and Science Clubs. It was in
the winter term that David really shone, for he was
a gj'mnast of note, winning Bigside Colours for
three years and being elected Vice-Captain of the
Gym Team in his last year. In return for his
invaluable work for the school David was appoin-
ted a House Officer.
David overcame his small size, and fit the
School to his own needs. With him left a valuable
asset to the Gym Team, and a cheerful smile on
Bottom Flat Brent.

Rodney Sands (62-68)
Rodney arrived in Boulden House from
Nassau, where he spent two quiet years. On
entering the Senior School, he involved himself
in School activities with a fire seldom seen. One
would never guess the extent: the Choir, a Sacris-
tan, the Dramatics Society, the Science Club, and
the Woodworking Club. In recognition of his
fanatical involvement with the school he was
appointed a House Officer. We wish him luck at
Law School in London, England.
Duncan Scott (64-68)
Duncan was always very active in athletics,
excelling at gymnastics. He always had good
form and smoothness, in spite of the fact that he
was bowlegged. He received Bigside Colours
twice, and captained the team in his last year.
The Gym Team will never be the same without
Duncan's ability to add to the humourous side
of things. In addition, Duncan received Middleside
Colours in football and cricket. Duncan is now at
Queen's University, where we hope he puts his
leaves to full use.
Poge 62
Chris ScoH (64-68)
Although Chris came to the school aa a Third
Form New Boy, he took about two yean to
rise to the surface. In the Fall, he played League
Football, and it was not until the winter and
spring terms that he came into his own, proving
to be a willing player for both Middleside Basket-
ball and Cricket, winning Colours in both sports.
Chris was a member of the make-up crew, and of
the Billiards Club.
A smallish person when he left, Chris none-
theless made up for it by a very good pair of
vocal chords. Good luck to him in the future.
¥
David Seagram (63-68) School Prefect
Although one of the quietest members of the
School, Seeg made his mark upon T. C. S. in many
ways. In athletics, he played soccer, hockey and
cricket, receiving Bigside Colours for his fearless
goal-keeping in hockey in the last two years and
excellent all-round showing in cricket in his sixth
form year. But in spite of his involvement in
sports, Seeg never let up academically: he stood
consistently near the top of his form.
His extracurricular activities show his varied
interests well. He was a member of the Junior
Political Science Club, a member of Junior Deba-
ting, and a tireless woodworker.
In whatever Seeg involved himself, he did it
with an intensity of purpose that is seldom seen
at T.C.S. In recognition of his maturity and good
judgement Seeg was made a fifth form House
Officer and then a School Prefect in his last year.
We wish him the best of luck at the University of
Toronto.
Doug Thompson (63-68) School Prefect
"Mouth" was an amazing person, willing to
talk to you for hours on why he talked so much.
Although he was not what one might call a gifted
student, Doug participated actively in school
affairs, playing football and basketball right up
through the ranks, gaining Middleside Colours
in both. In these sports he associated with ruffians
like "Chick" Wade.
In his final year, Doug, in the exalted ranks
of C. E. was elected captain of Bigside Football.
"Mouth" was fittingly, we think, appointed a
School Prefect We will miss Doug's usual com-
ments, and wish him luck.

Norman Todd (62-68)
Norm arrived in time to spend two years at
Boulden House. It was here that he developed
into a fine chess player, eventually the finest the
School has seen for a long time. He was also a
member of the questionable Stage Crew. Norm
was not only a base for arts at T.C.S., but he
was an athlete of some repute, having played
both Middleside and Bigside Football, receiving
Middleside Colours in both. Norm also played
three years of Bigside Basketball, winning full
colours twice, thanks to his height and eagle eye.
Norm was a Sacristan at the School, and was
appointed a House Officer during his final year.
We wish him luck in the future.
John Wade (63-68)
Soon upon entering tlie school, John estab-
lished himself as the "Happy Wanderer". By the
end of his Fourth Form year John decided hiking
took too much of his time and so joined Middle-
side Football, receiving colours in that sport as
well as in hockey. "Buck-buck" also received
Bigside Colours in rugger in his Fifth Form year.
In his last year "Chick" got Bigside Colours in
football, cross-country skiing, and rugger. In
addition to this, he received a Distinction Award
in rugger. We miss "Buck-buck's" smiling face
and wish him all the best at Waterloo.
Frank Whittaker (62-64, 66-68)
Although Frank left at Grade Nine, he returned
in his Fifth Form year amid snide remarks about
skipping the New Boy System. However, his
infectious frankness soonmadehim many friends.
Besides, who could not be friends with the whole
School, living with "Peon" Kaminis? Frank's in-
born sense of responsibility resulted in his appoint-
ment as House Prefect.
Frank's determination showed on the field,
winning him Bigside Colours in football and
skiing. It also showed in the classroom, Frank
being a member of 6A through more guts than
anything else.
We wish him all the best at Queen's University.

On CamMs
"In 1868 the Governing Body acquired an
Ideal property one mile north east of the town of
Port Hope, Ontario, and under the Headmaster-
ship of the late C. J. S. Bethune, the School
became firmly established as a boarding school
for boys, of a type similar to the great public
schools of England." Each year this school
publishes a School Calendar from which the
above excerpt is taken. If you haven't read it, it
.ncludes descriptions of everything from the
School's coat of arms to Old Boy Branch Presi-
dents. It is an interesting pamphlet that should be
recommended to all misled T.C.S. students. Any-
way, the On Campus Department of the Record,
offended by the bias with which it presents T.C.S.,
wishes not to take a cynical or negative look at
the same School but rather to show with equal
bias the other extreme in describing this School,
the side which gives the School its character and
personality. By the way, according to the latest
polls, the students have expressed the desire that
the strip of property one mile from Port Hope
which was mentioned above, should be removed
one more mUe from town on account of recent
frictions.
Daily Routine
The way in which the School awakens in the
morning is pretty indicative of the way it functions
all day long. The New Boys are up at 6:45,
eager and raring to go. Sixth Form rises at 7:00
out of obligation to their duties. Fourth and Fifth
Forms straggle out of bed at 7: 24 a.m. The
rest of the day is one big kedeidiscopic blur — no
one really knows what comes before or after
anything else. Much is accomplished and learned
from this routine — how to bolt down a meal in
ten minutes, brush one's teeth in fifteen seconds,
(making a bed at the same time), and how to
run a mile without reedly knowing it, (i.e. forget-
ting a book for two classes in a row — right
Ketchum House?) On weekends one can spend
time off the campus in a variety of exciting and
satisfying ways; although now that the Dairy
Queen is out of bounds, the variety aspect has
been cut in half, leaving the Saturday night
movie as the only available alternative. At any
rate, while indulging in the wild entertainment
mentioned above, any T.C.S. student under five
feet receives as a bonus, a free fight — compli-
ments of Kelly's Pool Hall ... No matter what
night, every boy is in bed by 11:00, except for
Record editors, who just don't go to bed (or
breakfast??!)

School Work
Scholars say that Bigside athletes lead the
School in their studies because they let off so
much energy on the playing field. But we know
that this is not true. C. E. leads the School aca-
demically, for the simple reason that they save up
so much energy in Economics class that they
have no choice but to use it up in the rest of their
classes. T.C.S. is also noted for the diverse and
irregular submission of scheduled essays; recent
writers of essays can easily be identified by the
black bags under their eyes the morning after;
the length of a particular essay can be quickly
determined by the number and blackness of the
bags . . . Rumour has it that the Fifth Form, no
doubt as a means of escaping the terrible pressure
of their demanding schedules, have taken up
"bird-watching" en masse. An interesting point to
be noted is the number of spare periods presently
enjoyed by Senior boys. One anonymous English
teacher at the School tells us of the remarkable
ability of many boys to quote line upon line from
the B.S.S. Prism or Sports Illustrated, as a result
of this programme.
Ah, the books are upside down fellasi
Games
Games are a major part of every facet of
School life — hobbies, studies, religion, dissent.
They set off bitter rivalries (ethnics vs. animals);
they also result in rallies that on several occasions
have convinced at least one doughty old Port
Hope resident that the Injuns were recapturing
Canada. They bring out the sophistication of
students (cricket), the competitive spirit in boys,
(League football), and the humour of all players,
even when humour is the last thing in the world
that is called for (Middleside Football). In fact,
without sports at this School, the students would
be at a great loss. There would be no cliques, no
leaves in Toronto, and no development of inferi-
ority and superiority complexes. And what would
become of our math teachers without Bigside
sports? All three would turn into equations or
number lines. Long live the Leagues and the
Higher Ranks!

Leadership
"Senior boj's play a major role in the School.
Much of the internal management of the School
is in the hands of these boys. The function of
these senior boys is to use their considerable
authorit>' as an opportunity to" decide on such
vital questions as the leaking water faucet in
Middle Bethune or the colour of a certain radical's
Sunday suit
And may we be lead into the right holes
so that our runners may be lead astray.
Carry on men
Religious Instruction
The School is an Anglican Church School. The
major school service of the week is held on
Sunday at 9:30 a.m. There is, encouragingly
enough, nearly always 100 per cent attendance
at these services (although there is always the
odd misfit who breaks the rules.) Prayers are
read in the Hall before breakfast every morning.
Recently Old Boys are noted for thir sudden shouts
of the Lord's Prayer at 7:31 some mornings, an
automatic reaction that is hard to get rid of.
Music
Music plays an important part in School life.
Inspection Day wouldn't be what it is without the
solid back-up of the concert band during the gym
display. And who can forget the last night of the
school year with the Boulden House band, the
School choir and some other display — a rock
band or something. A truly great night for music
at T.C.S. There is also a Glee Club.
Bucking for the Boston Symphony?

As President of the Committee I must
remind you boys that . . .
Entertainment
An Entertainment Committee of upproxlmutely
200 girls is selected each year, mostly from the
Toronto area. They are responsible for high
morale during leaves and dances, and low morale
during their absence. They provide entertainment
while visiting the School and also away from the
School, as well as when they are discussed in
the dressing rooms and at the table. Their main
function though, seems to be to take up the boys'
Sunday afternoons, providing them with a very
hectic day catching trains, looking inconspicuous
leaving and entering the School grounds, and
trying their hardest not to blurt out their latest
escapade that same night to their best buddy next
door. Girls who are on the Committee should
please refrain from attractingourboys away from
the School on Sundays.
School Publications
There are two publications by T.C.S. One is
the School Magazine "The Record" which is pub-
lished three times a year, giving boys an oppor-
tunity for editorial and business experience, plus
headaches over deadlines for material, budget
difficulties and trying to find a good inside
cover picture. There is also that subversive, under-
ground newspaper "The T.C.S. News", sent out
five times a year to keep parents and Old Boys
in touch with school activities. (Is it not, therefore,
strange that parents are always so surprised by
their son's personal accounts of school life?)
Editorial end business experience? Bah, I do it because
I like it.

Hobbies
"The cultivation of hobbies is considered a
very important part of education." What do stu-
dents do during these cultivating hours? Sur-
prisingly enough, art, carpentry, music and rea-
ding do not rank high on the list Instead, throw-
ing footballs, (as if there isn't enough of it)
paying tribute to the Hugh Russell Memorial
Tuck Shop, and a very irregular but definitely
popular activity — bird watching! And of-course,
their is just good old loafing around.

Air Cadets
Two periods a week are dedicated to the study
Air Cadets. The versatile student today displays
his many talents, ranging from the all out search
for a hydrant to blowing "Boom-Boom" on the
bugle. (That also could come under music. ) Each
member of the Senior School is a member of the
Cadet Corps which is inspected in the Spring.
Each student undergoes a three week training
period. Whether one agrees or disagrees with the
principle of Cadets, it makes for a miserable
term. The people who don't like Cadets resent the
people who do because they are getting their way.
The students who like Cadets are discouraged
because so many students don't appreciate what
they are doing. The men in the ranks hate the
officers, and the officers hate the men in the
ranks. Anj-way, every student is either resented,
hated, depressed, or discouraged. See you in the
rifle range, soldiers!

the inflation of the usual unmentionables.

Educational Visits
The most educational visits sponsored by the
School are the two mid-terms and the Christmas
and Easter holidays. It is an indisputable fact
that much is learned in trying to jam four months
of living into four days. Other trips include
matinees at the Stratford Festival. Students not
only experience a great Canadian culture but also
how "401" service stations cope with an onrush of
100 boys. The whole excursion proves most
interesting.
Clubs
The Dramatics Club is available for up and
coming actors and actresses, drop-out electricians,
and chain-smoking stage crewmen.
The Debating Club is composed of good
speakers, loud mouths, and people who want to
debate L.B.F. and have nervous breakdowns
under the pressure of the energetic coach.
The Political Science Club meets irregularly to
discuss membership requirements and possibly
another trip to the United Nations.
The BiUiards Club is composed of aU sixth
formers who either keep up in their Math or do
not take Math at all.
And if you think he's bad, well you haven't seen the
coach.

Physical Fitness
Physical education has been stepped up con-
siderably with the recent arrival of a youthful
and energetic Physical Education teacher. Since
his arrivjil a very popular five minute endurance
test has been introduced. Every student looks for-

it measures his endurance, stamina, and co-

Discipline ranges from early morning running

Saturday, mid-day running. No matter what the
time, it is the same track. Many things have
happened to boys running that track: they get
lost; discover new tracks, wreck old tracks, learn
to hitchhike and bumper jump; and make some
of their best friends after spending many unsuff-
erable hours together.
No, the usual front to make like an athlete.
Depending on what end of the ladder you're on!

The expansion of the League, for the old teams,
did not serveany purpose, as was expected. T.C.S.
diH not shine on any level athletically this term;
our playing was characterized by mediocrity
combined with both a few lucky breaks, a few
tough breaks, and quite a few injuries. Bigside
seemed very tough at the start, but had the wind
taken out of their sails after an unexpected loss
to Ridley. Middleside suffered a disastrous season.
Littleside was a successful team, tying with U.C.C.
for second place. The first Soccer Team had to
be satisfied with a respectable second place tie,
while the second team had a somewhat disappoin-
ting season.
A quick glance at the month's marks would,
in many people's eyes, destroy the "healthy body,
healthy mind'theory. There have been complaints
from many athletes that too much time is spent
off the field (chalk-talks, etc.), using up valuable
time for other activities, thus starting the year off
on the wrong foot. These people, however, must
and often fail to realize that if this school or any
other hopes to produce a good athletic record, a
great deal of laborious, time-consuming effort
and devotion is required. Are we willing oi'are
we not?

Coach's Report
For the record, we won 3 and lost 5.
It was a funny season — serious injuries to
key players occurred early and damaged the
team's chances of the championship. The young
players, and the inexperienced filled the gaps and
kept us in contention. More important, really, is
the way this group of boys continued to play
together — as a unit. Only once in the season,
against Don Mills, did the team really give up —
and we will all live with that.
My job as a coach has been made so much
easier with the help and encouragement of Mr.
Simpson, who did an outstanding job in coaching
the defence, and Doug Doolittle, who was always
there when he was needed, to give the team a
boost. And with the boys on the team giving out
as they did, it was a pleasure.
The greatest disappointments were the losses to
Ridley and S.A.C. On other days we could have
taken them. Think what the addition of McNabb,
O'Kell, Robson, Simpson and Vines could have
meant.

Captain's Report
Although this season was not as impressive
as last year's as far as a won-lost record is
concerned, it was a very enjoyable one. The
spirit of the team was excellent; people like Hart
Drew and Ralph Keefer brought and kept spirit
at a peak.
During the U.C.C. game the team never let
down; this is one great asset we had. Never was
there a lack of determination to win.
Injuries were a major factor in this year's
team. Thw team played exceptionally well under
the tPk'ing circumstances it suffered. I would like
to congratulate all the boys who played on the
team for their first year. Many of them came in
when others were hurt, and I think they all
deserve credit for the very good job they did.
I would like also to sight Jim Steer as one of
the best running backs at T.C.S. He played every
game at his very best, and many times it was his
encouragement and ability that got us all-
important yardage. Ralph Keefer is another
person who played well all season and scored
many of our points.
To Mr. Hargraft go my sincere thanks. The
number of hours of work and devotion he has
put into this year's team was simply remarkable.
He spent many late hours going over plays
while the team slept. Mr. Simpson was an excel-
lent defensive coach and kept everyone, including
his defense, guessing as to what was coming next.
We must not forget Doug Doolittle, whose great
enthusiasm about this team kept us going from
week to week. Finally, I thank all those who
supported the team — parents, old boys and
friends. Many may not realize what this means
to a team; to us it gave great insentive to play
the best football we could.

Exhibition Games
Bigside played three 'exhibition games' this
year; the Old Boys, Don Mills Collegiate and
RM.C. were the opponents.
The Old Boys game is always a tough one
for Bigside, for the team is never quite organized
and settled down enough to take full advantage
of their strength against the ever keen and eager
Old Boys. Bigside has not beaten the Old Boys
for eight years, and this year was no exception.
Our main trouble was that we gave away Bruce
McPherson one year too early, for he did almost
all the work for the Old Boys. We seemed to
lack cohesion and drive, but even this fact did
not make the game any less exciting. The score
indicates the extremely close game that it was.
Many errors were made on both team's sides, but
the Old Boys were not as conscious of them as
we were, forthey wonthegamewitha score of 8-7.
Bigside faced a very reputable Toronto High
School team with some degree of ner\'ous tension
and awe. However, a recovered Don Mills fumble
and a superb run by Tom Bell early in the game
helped quell those feelings and inspire confidence
into the team as Bigside took a 6-0 lead. Don
Mills soon equalled it. A series of brilliant plays
in the third quarter put us once more in the lead.
However, it took only one mistake, a signals
mix-up, to break us completely in the fourth quar-
ter, for Don MiUs proceeded to score four touch-
downs in the final six minutes of play to defeat
us 30-13. If Bigside had not let the one mistake
that was made assume such importance, the final
score would have been quite different. An exciting
but disappointing game.

After walking over R.M.C. last year, Bigside
came into the game a little nervous as to what
the revengeful R. M. C. team would do. We gained
a one point lead at the beginning (a safety touch),
but the opposition quickly answered with an
unconverted touchdown. Not to be dismayed by
the score, Bigside put Ralph Keefer across the
line to end the half. Ralph came out in the second
half to score two more touchdowns; aU three were
unconverted. The team had gained the confidence
they needed to make their drive. Bigside clicked
both offensively and defensively, playing a hard,
clean and good game. James Steer drove through
the line on an exciting last play of the game to
get another converted touchdown. The final score
28-6.

Appleby College
Won 15-0
This nervous but confident team played their
first Independent League game against Appleby.
Many Old Boys and parents were there to help
from the sidelines.
Jim Steer got the first touchdown on a rush
after a long run by Bob Rogers and a pass
received by Ralph Keefer. It was converted and
T.C.S. led 7-0 before Appleby touched the ball.
The game continued with T.C.S. predomina-
ting. Our main strength on offence were the
skills of some of our backfielders. The defence
kept Appleby from touching the baU very often,
thanks both to our low and hard-hitting line and
the quick reading of the defensive keys.
In the third quarter, Wootton dove for an
excellent interception and soon Ralph Keefer
caught a spectacular touchdown pass, which was
unfortunately called back for a penalty. However,
early in the fourth quarter Jim Steer scored the
second touchdown on another Trinity drive.
The tension built up to a height in the final
minutes of the game as the T. C. S. defense accom-
plished the incredible and unforgettable feat of
holding Appleby for four consecutive plays inside
our own five yard line. What an excellent way
this was to finish the first Independent League
game.

Lakefield College
Won 45-0
The sidelines were packed as Bigside met
Lakefield on our Convocation Week-end. Right
from the start, it was obvious that this game
would mean a win for Bigside. Lakefield was
small and inexperienced.
Despite the scoring, however, it must not be
imagined that the team played a first rate game.
It was mainly because of the great running skills
of Jim Steer, Tom Bell, and Ralph Keefer and
the failure of the opposing defense to stop these
players even when the opportunities arose that
we won this game by such a high score. The
line, only sharp when necessary, generally looked
lazy and did not hit hard either offensively or
defensively, thus forcing the backfield to win the
game. As the backfield did an admirable job, the
line did not, and understandably so, have the
insentive to go full out. The final score, 45-0,
indicates the mis-match that the game proved to
be.

The weather was beautiful and the Ridley
sidelines were packed with Old Boys for this
crucial game. T.C.S. parents and Old Boys were
also well turned out and the scene was set for a
thrilling match.
Along with the sun, the confident Bigside
squad launched forth and started the game with
a good attack. Steer, with the aid of good block-
ing, thrust himself through the centre to give
Trinity the first touchdown. Ridley, having re-
ceived the kick, were now gradually pushed
back into their own end by Trinitj''s defensive
alertness and strength.
An exuberant Trinity squad perhaps began to
take success to their heads during the second
quarter for they allowed Ridley to move into
their end, and to kick a field goal for three
points. T.C.S. prompdy tooktheball into Ridley's
half, but lacked the drive and the blocking to
score a touchdown.
Trinity came into the second half of the game
with an interception, but were called for holding.
Perhaps this circumstance was what stopped us.
Ridley proceeded to pass the ball and scored with
a long pass and convert. For the rest of the game
the defense continually got the ball for us, but
our offense fell to pieces each time on the Ridley
twenty yard line due to a lack of offensive block-
ing. Ridley once more sneaked by the defense for
a touchdown.
Especially due to the efforts of Pete Salmon,
Jim Rossiter, and Mike Douglas, defensively.
Trinity shone; our offense however, although it
started well, lost its drive, precision, and mainly
its blocking as the game continued. The loss to
a team that they felt sure they could beat, set
Bigside back for a shock which was not easy to
recover from.

This was our most important game; if we won
it we sould be almost assured of a tie for the
Independent League championship. However, a
series of injuries, a lack of confidence in the
team, and sorry disagreement in the ranks, put
us at a disadvantage from the start
Considering this, T.C.S. started well, but could
never gain the upper hand on a big, healthy,
confident U.C.C. team. At moments it looked as
if we could do it, but never did we break through.
The defense played a good game, but perhaps
spent too much effort covering the stars and not
enough on other good players. Too many times
unexpected U.C.C. players broke through for the
big gains. (Jim Rossiter must be given credit,
however, for his covering of the infamous Laing).
Offensively, we were not sharp, and due to a
lack of players, became fatigued early in the game.
A failure to match U.C.C.'s offensive scoring was
our downfall. The exceptional rimning skills of
Jim Steer and Tom Bell were not enough to
put us on the scoreboard.
This game was a big disappointment for such
a potentially good team. The score of the game,
however, shows the exceptions, not so much the
trend.

Bigside was not very worried about this game
with S.A.C., for it represented the end of a long
hard season. It took quite a bit of scoring for
the team to be put on their toes, however, for
right away S.A.C.'s Kitchen ran back a kick from
his own ten yard line for a touchdown. Before
we could recover from the shock, S.A.C. took the
ball across our goal line again to take a 12-0
lead. This forced us to move against the team we
were confident of beating. The defence woke up,
and the offence, after scoring a single point, put
Steer over for a touchdown. The defence, however,
was still not able to control the formidable pas-
sing attack of the opposition. Several very advan-
tageous flare passes put S.A.C. ahead by a score
of 20-8 at halftime.
The beginning of the second half did not
bring any improvement in our pass defence, as
S.A.C. drove over for yet another touchdown.
Trinity then woke up completely and evened up
the play. Our second touchdown came on a famous
Argonaut "sleeper play" to Bob Rogers, fooUng
the S.A.C. defense as well as the crowd. The score
closed up even more as Jim Steer found the hole
in the line cleared for him and got six more
points. With 8 points difference between the teams
and five minutes to play, the tension became
great. The team, however, faUed to come through
with a needed break as the S. A. C. defence closed
the gaps. The game ended with a disappointing
28-20 loss.

What little crowd that turned out for Middle-
side's first Independent League game did nothing
to encourage the already low team spirit. From
the beginning, our team looked defeated, but the
shock of being scored on right away gave them
the determination to give as best a showing of it
as they could. With this determination they repea-
tedly made good drives up the centre; only to be
foiled by the Appleby defence which stopped them
on every attempt. The game was lost, but not
without a strong offensive puch. T.C.S. was
repeatedly within the five yard line only to lose
the ball. The team put up a good battle but were
subject to several careless and unfortunate
mistakes.

By far the best game of the season, Middleside
went into it with high spirits and maintained this
attitude throughout the game.
Early in the game, Ridley took the lead with
a good run for a touchdown combined with a
two point conversion pass. Middleside, for once,
was not at all thwarted by this, as they came on
strong with an interception by Sceats. Then, for
the first time in the season, the offense came into
the UmeUght with a touchdown pass to Armstrong
to end the half.
The second half proved to be one of close,
tough football with neither defense giving in to the
other team's offensive drives. The game ended at
a close 8-6 in favour of Ridley.

Having lost to the same team once already,
Middleside met a big, confident Upper Canada
team on home ground only to undergo a repeat
performance of the first game. Due to the excel-
lent opposing defensive backfield, Middleside tried
to drive through the centre, but got nowhere, the
line failing to clear the necessary holes. Nor was
our passing attack strong enough to break the
U.C.C. defensive squad. When it came our turn
to take the defensive, we could not contain the
powerful running and blocking around the ends
that U.C.C. came up with. The final score was
28-0 in favour of U.C.C.
This was the last game of the season, and
Middleside, having lost all of its previous games,
went into it with very little drive. S.A.C. was no
bigger as a team, but much faster and much
better organized; this put us off from the start
As the game progressed, Middleside tried
everything — up the middle, around the ends,
and passing — but nothing worked as the S.A.C.
defense contained us throughout the game. Our
defense did only an average job, failing to con-
tain the S.A.C. sweeps or hold on to their power-
ful backfielders. With a loss of 26-1, Middleside
scored its final and one of its few points of the
season.

Exhibition Games
Middleside played four exhibition games this
year: DeVeaux twice, HUineld, and U.C.C.
DeVeaux stunned Middleside with their
superior running, passing, and defensive playing.
For the first time, Middleside faced the DeVeaux
first team, and did not wake up to the superior
playing until the second half. At the end of the
first half, the score was 38-0, and at the end of
the game the score was 39-0, a gain of only one
point. This indicates the defensive "tightening-up"
that took place in the second half.
The rematch saw a repeat of the same trend
with very little difference. The first half was a
walk-over for DeVeaux, as Middleside failed both
offensively and defensively to either score or
rout the opposition. In the second half, the defence
held DeVeaux to only one touchdown, while the
offense could not score, despite several brilliant
pass plays. The final score, 38-0.
Some important injured players and the strength
of the opposition resulted in a disastrous game
against U.C.C. Middleside was beaten in the first
eight minutes of the game, as the U.C.C. offense
ran unhindered for two touchdowns. It was not
until close to the end of the game that our offense
began to roll, but even then, sifter several good
plays, we were keyed and the mechanics of the
_ Xi'

Nor could the defense contain the powerful U.C.C.
drives which led to a 31-0 defeat.
As Hillfield proved not to be a formidable
team, Middleside gained confidence, and were
surprised when, early in the game, Hillfield re
turned a punt for a touchdown, followed in the
third quarter by another. The defense finally keyed
their plays and stopped the opposition dead. The
offense then came to light with a pass to Jim Hall
for a T.D. Time ran out, however, leaving the
disappointed Middleside with a 13-7 loss.

Exhibition Games
Littleside played three exhibition games, two
against DeVeaux, and one against U.C.C.
When examing the total points (T.C.S. 13,
DeVeaux 13), one might be led to believe that
the two teams were always evenly matched. This
could not beso, however, for our offense improved
by 13 points in one game, whereas DeVeaux
improved by only one point against our defense.
Special credit should be given to Paul and Currelly
the running backs, without whose drive and
determination we would have gone nowhere. The
defensive unit, too, smelled out and demolished
almost e%'ery play DeVeaux threw at the team.
There were tough breaks on both sides, and the
team enjoyed the two games immensely, both for
the experience and the sheer fun of the game.
As the score indicates (33-0), Littleside was
badly defeated by U.C.C, but even the tremendous
pressure of a strong U.C.C. offensive did not
crack the spirit this team had managed to develop.
Everyone played hard, but did not know enough
about the game as a team to overcome the
opposition. Our pass defense unit was particular-
ly weak and inexperienced and thus let by several
U.C.C. touchdowns. Our offense was not cohesive
and powerful enough, as yet, to take full advan-
tage of its potential. However, "practice makes
perfect", and Littleside, realizing this, waited
patiently for their revenge match.
Other than the usual suffrance of nervous
tension before the game, Littleside was ready in
every way to meet the perhaps slightly over-
confident Appleby team. The opposing over-
confidence only served to give the team the spark
of determination and the morale boost needed to
play a hard and, as usual, a clean game. The
defense was on their toes; their rushing and
tackling was excellent, and the team seldom let
a runner complete a first down. The usual defen-
sive stand-outs once more shone. Offensively, the
team completed their plays like clockwork. Every-
thing went smoothly. The hard-hitting line cleared
the holes to give both Paul and Currelly the
opportunity to take advantage of their fine run-
ning skills. A good, well-earned 26-2 win for
Littleside.

The perennial excuse for losing to Ridley is
once again used, for in spite of several warnings
from Mr. Dale, Littleside did not fuUy recover
from three hours of cramped legs. But this was
certainly not the only excuse, for Ridley, both
offensively and defensively, played a superb
game. The Littleside spirit lagged, and as a result
no one played an outstanding game. However,
the second half, although not a productive one,
was certainly far better played and more exciting
than the first. The plays began to click, but still
were not good enough to put us over their line.
Nor could our defense contain the powerful
Ridley pass-run combination. Littleside returned
to school disappointed, but had by no means
given up for the season after this loss.

Littleside's second meeting with U.C.C. was on
a cold, windy Saturaday at Trinity. T.C.S. domi-
nated the game from the kickoff, except for a short
space of time in the fourth quarter.
After an early U.C.C. touchdown, Littleside
moved with precision. Memory, on a reverse
around the end scored our first converted touch-
down. With the offense running very smoothly,
Paul moved across the line for the second con-
verted touchdown, which put us in the lead.
Suddenly, in the fourth quarter, U.C.C. came
alive. A converted touchdown tied the score and
the game became very tense. T.C.S. regained
control of the ball, but failed in a last minute
attempt on a "long bomb" play. Sighs of both
disappointment and relief were heard as the
game ended in a 14-14 tie. A close, exciting
game, offensively and defensively.

On October 30, Llttleside went away confi-
dently to play Lakefield. For the first half of the
game, although the defense played well, the
necessary balance between offense and defense was
not attained. The offensive squad did not work
cohesively. Both the blocking and the ball hand-
ling was sloppy, resulting in two fumbles.
Behind 8-0, Llttleside faced the second half
very differently. The plays started to work, and
thanks mainly to Ferguson, Paul, Pegg and
(defensively) Austin, the team scored three touch-
downs and let only one by. The first half was
dead, but perhaps it was a pep talk that inspired
them to hit hard and win the game in the second
half, by a score of 19-12.

The Llttleside team arrived at S.A.C. confident
of a win, but bet a team of equal ability. After
five minutes of close play, Paul broke the game
open with a 35 yard touchdown run. The defense
then failed to stop a long S.A.C. run, which
brough the tension back into the game. Another
spectacular run ensued; Paul returned a kick-off
107 yards for a T.D.
As the game continued into the second half,
it was the defense of both teams that shone. Each
team scored a touchdown, which left us ahead
19-14 at the end of the game. Llttleside left the
field tired but rejoicing with a tie for second place
in the Lidependent League.

First Team Soccer
Coach's Report
This year our First Soccer Team started off
the season with a number of high-scoring wins in
the South Kawartha Soccer League. We managed
to beat R.M.C. in a very close game and to tie
U.C.C.'s First Team, a very strong one, beat
Ridley's First Team and once again tie U.C.C.
This all-out effort and the pace of three and
sometimes four matches a week caused some
injuries and setbacks in the latter part of the
season. We ended up second in the South
Kawartha League and second in the L.B.F., a
ver>' commendable performance considering the
improved calibre of soccer all around. The strong
defensive play of Jamie Richards, Grant Woolsey,
Carey Leonard, and Tim Denton and fast offen-
sive action by Dave Gibson were important
features of every game. Craig Armstrong contri-
buted a great deal with his dependability.
— J. W. L. G.
Exhibition Gomes
This year showed some very improved teams
in the Kawartha League. T.C.S. started off with
six straight wins, giving us much of the needed
practice for the L. B.F. games to come. However,
once we started our L. B.F. games, the League
became somewhat of an exhausting let-down. For
example, we played as many as four games a
week, three of which were on successive days,
leaving a very tired T.C.S. team. Unfortunately,
one of the games was against U.C.C, which left
the team exhausted the next day when it came to
playing Port Hope. The spirit which the team
once had for the League had now been changed
into L.B.F. spirit. The result led us to lose two
out of our ten league games.
The team feels that it would be more profitable
to resign from the League and play more L.B.F.
games and games with Hillfield, Courtice, and St
George's. Although this would possibly result in
fewer wins, it would provide us not only with
greater challenge, but generally better soccer, thus
maintaining our high spirit and determination
throughout the season.
Poge 97
Thirty-six goals were scored by us and eleven
against us during the League season. No one
will forget the spectacular "heads" made by Grant
Woolsey or the exciting goals by Pell Price. The
experience we received from these games helped
us greatly during our L. B.F. season.
The ground was wet and the sky clear for this,
the most important game for the Soccer Team.
Afler a previous tie with U.C.C, this was to be
the deciding game.
During the first half of the game, T.C.S. had
to play against a heavy wind, which time after
time sent the ball flying down toward the T.C.S.
goal. Yet. despite this, the teams appeared right
from the start to be very evenly matched; the
ball travelling back and forth across the field
with dock-like regularity. As the half progressed,
U.C.C. slowly gained the upper hand on us, but
were set back when Archibald managed, through
some clever manipulating, to centre the ball for
Brian Herman who proceeded to kick it into the
lower left comer of the U.C.C. goal, making the
score at the end of one half an encouraging 1-0
for us.
A quick U.C.C. goal at the start of the second
half tied the game up, which only, strangely
enough, gave us more determination. With a lot
of hard work, we kept the ball in their end but
for a breakaway goal that gave them the lead.
Once again, our determination increased at the
same time as the tension, and paid off with a goal
by Price, assisted by Gibson. From then on, the
ball continued to move consistendy up and down
the field, with neither of the two teams able to
gain an advantage over the other.
The score ended in a 2-2 tie, with everyone
quite satisfied that we had once again been able
to prevent U. C. C. from overpowering us.
Upper Canada College
Tied 2-2
Ridley College

Poge 98
With an L. B. F. tie in mind, the first Soccer
team arrived in Aurora to be pitted against what
turned out to be superior opposition. The team
faced the wind in the first half and was badly
outplayed. The forward line could not advance
deep into S.A.C. territory, and the defense was not
quite sharp enough to stop the two breakaways,
the corner kick, and the scramble that all turned
into S.A.C. goals.
The second half was much closer as we moved
with the wind behind us. Our only goal came as
Archibald scored off an excellent corner kick by
Gibson. Behind 4-1 and with only a quarter of
the game left, this was not enough inspiration
to get us back on our feet, for only one minute
later, S.A.C. scored on yet another breakaway.
The ball then travelled up and down the field
untU, with only one minute left in the game,
S.A.C. scored by"heading"theball past Richards.
Leonard and Herman should be given credit for
the fine game they played against a superior team.
The final score was 6-1.

Second Team Soccer
The Second Soccer Team played a consider-
ably higherstandardofSoccerthisyear. They had
two good wins, one over Ridley, the other over
Hillfield, and a hard-fought tie in the first game
with U.C.C. In the second U.C.C. game, we were
outlasted by a stronger team while the S.A.C.
game was very close and hard fought. Fyshe
played very ably in goal all year and was a
good co-captain. Grandfield played ably while he
was fit. Barnett, Seagram, Richards, T.A., all
played steadily during the year. In many cases
the enthusiasm made up for any lack of skill.

Boulden House Record
We welcome the 1968 crop of New Boys to
Boulden House and wish them a happy and use-
ful time at T.C.S. There is a good spirit in
Boulden House this year which has shown up
well on our Rugby and Soccer teams.
A warm welcome to Mr. Attridge and Mr.
Lewis who have joined our staff this year.
Our friends are most generous to us and we
are very grateful to Mrs. Clouston, Mr. Cohu
and Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Archibald for their
generous gifts to our new library. Mrs. P.
Ambrose, Mr. A. Duncanson and Mr, Dennys
have also been kind enough to donate books to
our Junior and Senior Libraries. Our sincere
thanks to all of them for thinking of us.
The Port Hope Branch of the Ladies Guild
has made a most generous contribution towards
the purchase of Audio-visual supplies. We thank
them for their valuable contribution to this impor-
tant department.

The Editor's Corner
This term has been a lively one so far for all
of us in Boulden House. The night life has also
been jumping, to the distress of the masters-on-
duty!
We are doing quite well in sports, with both
football and soccer showing good team spirit.
Our science programme has improved consi-
derably because the 1 lA Forms are permitted to
use the new laboratory facilities in the Senior
School.
The Boulden House Library collection is con-
tinuing to expand and we all appreciate the value
of this important facility.
New audio-visual equipment is assisting in
making our lessons more interesting. We have
new filmstrips, movie and overhead projectors.
Although we are all enjoying our first term 1
know we'U all be glad to get home for Mid- Term
Break and enjoy that extra holiday, thanks to
the Governor-General.

The Governor-General's Visit
On Sunday, October 13th we were privileged
enough to have the Governor-General drive
through the T.C.S. gates. He walked slowly
through the long line of Boulden House boys
lined in fkvo rows. Each boy was wearing his
maroon blazer. He proceeded to the one hundred
man Guard of Honour. Then, followed by a mul-
titude of people, he went to the Chapel for the
Sunday service. After this, he officially opened
the new buildings by unveiling a plaque beside
the north entrance. He then inspected and observed
the science displays, with George Bishop as his
guide. Boulden House boys participating in the
experiments were Brian Hughes, Ken Hughes,
Pat Scott, John Clouston, Richard Stutz, Hugh
Balloch and Rick LeSueur. Brian Hughes repor-
ted that the Governor-General seemed interested
in the whole science display. George Bishop, the
guide, reported that the Governor-General was
very rushed and did not have time to see very
much thoroughly. After this display, he went with
the Headmaster for lunch. He then left the School.
We enjoyed having him visit us.

It was that time again ... the School picnic.
The day was warm and sunny. Excitement was
growing intense when the great news came. Every-
body got changed and ran at top speed into
awaiting buses.
On the way we sang many old favourites such
as "Charley's Castle". Atlast . . . wearrivedand
almost sent the old bridge crumbling into the
river. Everybody helped unpack. Dinner was
ready. Mr. Morris and Mr. Lewis were having a
contest to see who could spray the farthest while
opening cans of pop. Then everyone settled down
to lunch — good old greasy, sausage and bacon!
A couple of boys decided that it would be fun
to experiment with fire but Mr. Morris (our fire
chief) came to the rescue and put out the smoul-
dering tree.
We returned to meet the buses and as usual
Mr. Dennys' little red sports car had disappeared.
But our detective (Mr. Tottenham) soon tracked
it down . . . and the culprits!
Ah well! Another School picnic has ended with
many thanks to Mrs. Moore for the use of her
relative's farm for one truly wonderful day.

Autumn Wood
I cannot walk quickly through a wood. If I
did I would let many things go by. I would miss
the rustling of the leaves and the scurrying,
fluttering sounds of the smallest animals. I would
not notice the squirrels tossing their nutshells
from the high branches or the stone-stiff heron
atop the dead, old tree at the fork in the path. I
am thinking of a particular wood now, where
there is often a heron, standing perfectly still
and absolutely silent, watching, waiting for some
reason to move. Why should he move? He has
no appointments to keep. Finally though, he
would lift himself from his high perch and begin
his lazy, wheeling, flight toward the blue, reedy
lake where he waits again; this time for dinner,
or to seek another of his own kind.
I have many routes to choose through this
wood. I could follow the gravel road, and feel
the soft crunching of the worn stones beneath my
feet. I could follow the road to the farm, and see
it, shining white in the sun. Or I can tread along
the old, leaf-covered logging road towards the
crumbling stile, and then into the thick wood
itself where I come face to face with raw nature;
a huge buzzing hive of the very fattest wUd
bees.
The fascination of the wood is only for the
few, those people who can walk slowly are the
only ones who can appreciate the wonders of
the autumn wood.

One Day in The Life of William
William was a priest; not a very big priest,
mind you. He was only about an inch high in a
tin can cathedral. His entire life was devoted to
prayer.
This particular morning he was giving Com-
munion to a colony of ants. He was a pathetic
figure silhouetted against the clinging, decaying
lumps of dog food. An old bottle of Welch's
Grape Juice did nicely for the wine with some
four-day old Wonder Bread to follow up. Each
confirmed ant came up to the altar and took his
communion.
Morning Communion completed, he went on
the warpath for lunch. He came upon a fat
grasshopper. Blessed him. Murdered him and ate
him.
Then, licking his lips, William went into a
period of dormant digestion until nightfall.
When he awoke, he went about straightening
the cathedral for the next morning's service.
This finished, he took his post among the dog
food lumps, and took up his tuneful singing.
William is a praying mantis.

Suicide
I was on the window ledge, thirty-five floors
above the ground. I was not quite sure how my
wife had convinced me to commit suicide. All I
knew was that I was here and that I did not really
want to jump. I was so frightened that I could
not move my feet. Down below me a crowd had
gathered. I thought that they would all be waiting
eagerly to see me jump.
I felt that this was the easy way out All I
had to do was to take one tiny step forward and
I would not have to worry about my nagging
wife. Ever since I had lost my job my wife had
been nagging at me to get another. She began
to say that she did not want to be bothered with
me. I decided that I was out on the window ledge
so that I would rid my wife of her problem of
looking after me.
I knew deep inside that I would probably
never jump. There was a terrible struggle between
my conscience which refused to let me jump and
that other part of me that urged me on. Suddenly,
I felt a cold hand touch my back. I turned around
to see who it was. Then I lost my balance and fell.

The Chinook Arch
As 1 stood upon the cold, hard, crisp snow of
early morning, the western sky opened up before
my eyes. The rosy, suncoloured clouds were being
pushed back by a yet unfelt wind. An absolute
calm covered the blanched land. Then it came; a
soft whisper, at first, but it grew until it became
a strong breeze. There was now a large and
still gorwing semi-circle of deep, blue-hued sky.
When the blast of air struck me I was amazed
at the temperature, and realized that this was no
ordinary mountain wind. It was warm, and the
temperature was continually rising with the wind.
I became very excited when I realized that the
Chinook had struck again and relieved us of the
long, cold spell.
— K. G. Hughes
Untouched, Unseen, and Untrod
Before me lies a winter wonderland
Where snow is even, and unbroken
I set off to this wonderland on skis
of trees, snow, and scarcely any life.
I make a crushing sound Uiat echoes many times
In the land of the untouched, unseen and untrod.
I passed a cave and a bear looks out
He gave me a look, and went off to hibernate.
A squirrel sits up, with a nut in his mouth
He gives a chirp, and he's off to sleep.
Above me geese fly, quacking loud and
passingover
In the land of the untouched, unseen, and untrod.
I am near the end of my wonder ride
And the geese are gone
The bears are hibernating
The squirrel is asleep
all is silent
In the land of the untouched, unseen and untrod.
Soon this hill will not be silent
Other people will follow me
They will bring machines to ruin the
Squirrels' home, the bears' cave and the
geese' sky.
Up will rise tall buildings, a city established
In the land of the untouched, unseen and untrod.

Editorial
Since the distribution of the last edition of the
Record, the editors have naturally received a
great many comments, suggestions and criticisms.
Some approved of the kind of material that was
going into the magazine; others felt that there was
not enough "about the School".
Perhaps, then, the time has come for the
editors to explain what they are trying to
accompUsh this year. As its name suggests, the
magazine is meant as a record of the school
year. A good record must naturally include the
facts, the actual events, but as Mark Twain
once' said, " First you get the facts . . . then you
can distort them as much as you please": m other
words, the facts are not enough.
In a description of something as intangible as
the entire spirit of a school year, many other less
concrete factors must be considered. Particularly
at a school like T.C.S. where there are students
from several countries and innumerable back-
grounds, the various individual interests and
talents of the students are as important a con-
tribution to the life of the School as the group
acUvities that we all do together. The Record
has tried amd will continue to tr>' to be a reflec-
tion of what boys are thinking about and
interested in, as well as what they do at the
School. It must reflect many things which do not
have a direct bearing on T.C.S. but which,
indirectly, exert a great deal of influence. . . .
This. then, is the function of the Record as we, the
editors, see it.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The names of "Comment and
Criticism" and ~Arts" have been changed to
"Dialogue' and "Creactivity", respectively.

This Rock Within the Sea: A Heritage Lost
As you enter the New Library, you are bound to see the display case
with two photographic books within. The book on the left is by that well-
known bearded fellow, Farley Mowatt, and a photographer by the name
of John de Visser.
de Visser and Mowatt visited Newfoundland in 1967 and photo-
graphed and documented the lives of that unknown people. Some of de
Visser's photographs were displayed in the foyer and they attracted
attention.
de Visser, who was bom in the Netherlands, came to Canada in
1952 and began to take photographs in 1954. From these inauspicious
beginnings, de Visser is now doing photographs for Life magazine and
working as a free-lance photographer.
It is the photo-journalism team of de Visser and Mowatt which
put together "This Rock Within the Sea". Their intent on catching the
Newfoundlander in his native element is part of their success, de Visser
says: "The people knew Farley, and I knew him. He would start talking
to some people in a house and I would watch, on the outside. Then I
would take the pictures, without their noticing. Most of them are not self-
conscious and they don't seemany strangers in the first place" Sometimes
they ask: "Why didn't you stay in Canada, anyways?"
Mowatt's text is included with de Visser's photographs, though it
is hardly needed . . . the photographs speak for themselves.

The King of the Blues
At first 1 felt slightly apprehensive about
writing u review on B. B. King. I know little
about the history of the blues and even less
about the musical technicalities of King's method.
Like most students. I have listened to the more
"contemporary" white blues. However, the
Massey Hall concert has changed all this. I
cannot explain what brought about this change
in musical terms, as my knowledge is so limited.
I can, however, attempt to describe a feeling that
King shared with his audience. It is a simple
feeling but none the less a unique one. Perhaps
this feeling is what the blues is all about.
There was an almost static air of anticipation
throughout the audience prior to King's entrance.
Even the uninitiated merely tolerated folk singer
David Rae, as we caught the excitement of those
who realized what we were about to experience.
Finally King's band. Sonny Freeman and the
Unusuals were introduced. They consisted of
organ, bass, trumpet and Freeman on drums. The
sax player was absent but the group sounded
complete. The feeling now was one of suspense.
The suspense broke into the most excited applause
I have ever heard as B. B. King walked on stage.
He opened the first set with "Everyday I Have
the Blues", a number no member of that audience
will soon forget.
"The Blues", always a vague and misty term
suddenly defined itself in the form of King and
his guitar "Lucille".
"Soul", once an overused cliche, took on a
new dimension and was radiated from the Massey
Hall stage. With one shout from King and one
beautiful piercing note from Lucille, most of the
records I had listened to in the past suddenly
became tasteless.

King made love on the stage. It was a beauti-
ful sensitive lo\'e between him and his guitar. He
teased it with his voice, taunting it to reply. He
caressed it softly and it answered with sweet,
almost life-like tones. King let Lucille go where
she wanted. Her high notes drew an ecstatic
smile across King's face. Her quiet, tearful sounds
drifted up and seemed to surround him. B. U.
began to answer, the excitement grew and they
thrashed together madly. It was beautiful, and
even more impt)rtant, it was honest.
Other numbers were " How Blue Can You Clet",
"Sweet Little Angel" and "It's My Own Fault".
The qualitj' of King's performance was consis-
tent throughout, but he never became tedious.
Each song provided new scope to his character.
His character in return enhanced his performance.
The fact that he had been playing one night gigs
for fifteen years and is only now coming into
his own, seemed to make his blues all the more
personal and thus much more beautiful.
Kveryone who has experienced B. B. King
live, knows the feeling I have tried to describe.
It's a feeling thatstays with a person and explodes
everytime he listens to one of King's rec'ords. It
seems as if you know him personally. It is a
feeling of mutual understanding. /Ml this is the
blues and all of the blues is found in this man and
his guitar.

The One Act Play Festival
On February 19, the T.C.S. Dramatics Society
presented a One Act Play Festival on the new
stage.
To the surprise of many, the event proved to
be a success; limited in some aspects, but very
convincing as an experiment.
Three schools took part in the festival —
Lakefield College School, Port Hope High School
and T.C.S. Because of its experimental nature,
it was decided well in advance that adjudication
of the performance would be omitted. Instead, we
decided to treat it more as an educational experi-
ence, in the belief and hope that no group of
players would be sufficiently superior to derive
nothing of benefit. Fortunately, our expectations
were met.
Starting at 8:00 p.m., the first presentation of
the evening was Lakefield College School's pro-
duction of "The Marauders" by Karl Capek.
Directed by Richard Archibold and Geoff Carr-
Harris, Lakefield's interpretation of "The Marau-
ders" proved more than adequate, though few
could label it as outstanding. The result of a
house drama competition at Lakefield, the main
criticism which could be levelled at the presenta-
tion was the blend of surrealism and total bla-
tanc>'. It was stiU a worthwhile performance,
produced by a ver>' powerful school in dramatics.
The second production of the evening was
Port Hope High School's interpretation of "The
Zoo Story".
A difficult work to tackle successfully, the
general concensus was that the interpretations of
Jerry and Peter were not only viable but with
merit. The strength of character required for
simulating Jerry is one of the difficulties of the
play, and considering this, the two Port Hope
boys are to be commended for the skill they dis-
played in executing difficult roles.
Our own T. C.S. production proved itself com-
parable to the other two in execution, though the
actual content of the play was very different.
"Sorry Wrong Number" is a well-known mur-
der mystery comedy. Though undoubtedly the
most narrow in scope of the three plays, the
acting of Woody Milholland and the superb
direction of Mr. Robertson produced a good play.
When the evening finally came to an end at
10:30 p.m., the general feeling among directors,
players and audience was that it had been an
evening well spent.
Speaking for the T.C.S. players, I can say
that it was a most enjoyable endeavour. Through
each other's mistakes and strong points, we
learned something of value for the future.
One fact remains clear: The One Act Play
Festival warrants continuation in future years,
hopefully on a larger scale.

Franco Zefferelli's film, "Romeo and Juliet"
is an absolute gem. Juliet, played by fifteen year-
old Olivia Hussey, a new anti-Hollywood einti-
heroine, achieves a love so profound that the
film-goer believes that the ONLY words with
which she can describe her love are those written
by Shakespeare. Romeo, played by seventeen
year-old Leonard Whiting has a love so burning
that one can hardly believe that it is true until
his death, for it will surely burn out long before
that
Zefferelli has, of course, eliminated some of
the minor sub-plots and scenes from the play.
By the elimination of detaU and by the abUity
of the film to bring more realism to the screen,
the viewer is able to concentrate more on the
sequence of the play. We with the actors more —
we believe in their fate. In this way Zefferelli
brings us to deeper sorrow and to higher joy.
We are brought so low during the exile of Romeo
that we almost feel imcomfortable ourselves. By
the time of the tragedy at the tomb we have
plumbed the depths. We are able to feel the sud-
den maturing of Romeo, forced into adulthood by
circumstance. Juliet catches us as Romeo dies
and leads us along her road umtil we actually
believe in her fate.
The very flow of the fihn to an early tragedy
leads to my only criticism, and it is only because
of a personal feeling which some might not feel.
Our dizzy fall to sorrow, cuhninating with the
burial of Juliet, leaves one exhausted and
spiritually full. Some might feel, as I did, a little
ill at ease and even tired during the tragedy |at
the tomb. But even this did not allow metto
escape into cynicism, and I was caught in the
brilliant portrayals until the very end. i
There is no doubt that this fdm will appeal to
the Pepsi generation. At a time when 25 per cent
of the movie-going public sees 39 or more films
a year, and when eighty per cent of these are
between sixteen and twenty-five years old, youth
is a popular carrot for a film . . . "Wild m the
Streets", "The Endless Summer", and "Hells
Angels" are examples. But "Romeo and Juliet"
is artistically and tastefully directed from the
beginning to the end, including the touching bed
scene. At a time when Hollywood colour, split-
screens, 'squeezed' telephoto shots, and nudity
have begun to detract from the actual artistry
of film, it is a pleasure to watch a costly film
done with taste and style.

Bazley's Point
It would seem to the innocent onlooker, that
there has been a Hunnish invasion of framed
decorations growing out of the woodwork of
these hallowed halls. Thesouree of these paintings
is a pleasant little room on the third floor of the
old classroom block, that serves as a testing
ground and a playroom for budding artists who
are at the moment uninspired. From here, large
quantities of dry oil paints on dozens of square
feet of board spew forth. These splatter against
the wall of our buidings, where they remain, try-
ing to attract attention to themselves.
Upon inspection, the onlooker will discover
that at least half of these efforts come from one
origin . . . Bazley.
These paintings pleasantly vary in their sub-
ject material — a quality of which the artist is
quite proud.
It is my experience, that many people with no
particular artistic inclination find these paintings
very pleasing. The average old guard conserva-
tive would very happily buy them for more than
they are worth, and contentedly hang them in
his living room. Indeed, that type of painting is
popular in school hallways, suburbia, etc. Un-
fortunately, these paintings tend to be done in a
hurry, and consequently appear messy, or in
proper terminology: it is impressionist painting.
What motivates Bazley I don't know, but he
always paints simple things, even if they may be
unintelligible. No doubt he enjoys what he does.
Very likely he is going into this deep, soul
searching study of the angles of art for inner
fulfillment, the ecstacy of creating beauty, and to
spend time.

Editorial
Changes, cheinges, changes, curse all you nasty changers. You
say we mst change with society. Well, look at what kind of a school
we have now. Snipers on top of Ketchum House, strafing during
the cadet parade of 75: acid in our milk, the occupation of the
Tuck Shop, police confrontations in the orchard, 'live' burnings
during rallies. This school used to be a peaceful retreat from all
this violence. Now it breeds violence. What happened to the good
old days when everything was criticized and nothing was done?
As always history is the greatest teacher. The history of the
school has taught us the right way. Let us once again dress like
gentlemen, and act like boers. Let us censor our media and swear
all the time on the side. Let us restrict our violence to the football
field. Let us channel our black militants into being cadet lieutenants
and fag-masters. Let us reinstate some stability, some security,
some integrity back into school. Only then will we realize the true
meaning of education.

CHAPEL NOTES
This is a reinstated part of School News
due to the recent spontaneous service held
on the Bethune terrace. The hymns in-
cluded the "Jerusalem Blues" and
"Onward Buddist Freaks". The first
reading was taken from the "Essential
Works of Lenny Bruce." The second les-
son was improvised as the back row
near the hedge started making passes at

Mr. Don Ditachment
Q - WTiat drew you to T.C.S.
A - I think it was the radicalism and the emer-
gence of the 'New left', at the school. I was tired
of the staunch conservative institutions like Sir
George Williams and Columbia. I wanted vigor
in my teaching career.
Q - WTiat do you teach at the moment?
A - I instruct the "Subversive Activities" course
to C. E. I'm planning to encourage computer-
burning as an A.C.S. class.
Q - What do you think of the school spirit?
A - I think it is sagging a bit. The kids should
storm the 'lodge' more often and perhaps burn a
few housemasters — in effig\\ Of course they are
being quite strict aboutburnings since the students
mistook a real housemaster as being an effigy.
Q - What do you think of your fellow masters?
A - Mr. Lawson should let his beard grow
longer. I get a huge kick out of that prankster
Mr. Simpson. I feel that Mr. Arsmtrong should
cut his hair though, so at least it falls on his
shoulders.

Brief Biographies
Richard Haze -(70-75)
Richard arrived unnoticed at T.C.S. He came
from an upper class V\'.A.S.P. family which
resides in Port Hope. We had great expectations
for him. and during his stay he compiled one
of the most distinguished records to date.
The "razor' as we called him headed "The Abo-
lition of Lates and Quarters Committee", which
submitted a proposal stating that the system was
obsolete and if no action was taken a general
student strike would follow. The headmaster said
that he would look into the matter, and two
months later a general strike occurred: The ring-
leaders were rounded up but "Tricky Dick" had
organized the strike so well that he was not in-
cluded in the group. These leaders were expelled,
but Richard stayed on to see detention abolished.
In his third year "Corona" organized a strong
student union and finally brought about the aboli-
tion of the New Boy System. For this feat, he
was unanimously elected vice president.
Naturally "Gillette" was the overwhelming
choice of the student body and was elected presi-
dent of the school in his final year. Considering
the fact that the prefect system had previously
been abolished by Charley Schwartz, this was the
school's highest office. Frequent meetings were
held between Richard and the headmaster over a
period of months until a decision was reached;
POP MACHINES AND CIGARETTE DISPEN-
SERS WOULD BE ALLOWED IN THE
SCHOOL. The Board of Governors vetoed tiie
propos£il, and as a result the student union drafted
"Instant Foamy" to the headmastership.
Richard refused on the grounds that he would
accomplish more in his present position.
We wish Richard the best of luck at Parsons.
Disguised as a good guy
Hugh Shift (71-75)
Hugh had one of the most illustrious careers
known at the school. Head of the entertainment
committee, and captain of sports, he truly made
full use of his strongest capacities. In the class-
room, no one questioned the fact that " Hot-lips"
wrote the most creative obscenities on the desks
of anyone at the school. In the athletic phase of
T.C.S. , the "make out king" was the drivingforce
behind the formation of a wresUing team which
competed with other Ontario girls' schools. " Husti-
ing Hugh" won all four of his matches against
B.S.S. Extra curricularly, "Hands", as Head of
Entertainment, accomplished the amazing feat of
arranging a two day long dance on the top floor
of Ketchum House. Hugh was admired by all
and we wish him best of luck as an infiltrator
at Vassar University.

INSPECTION DAY, 1971
Uptight and out of sight! What a gas! Inspec-
tion was such a groove that now that the show
has been abolished for the "disgracvful perfor-
mance"; the students want the show to go on.
Let me tune vou in.
It was "398's" day of triumph. The Trin Trin
studs were ail declced out in their duds by noon.
A mass conspiracy to wear sandals instead of
spit-shone shoes and Yippie buttons instead of
brass was soon in evidence. The boys took up
their various positions iiround the campus, upon
top of the buildings, trees, and towers. Soon they
spotted the Old Boys and celebrities parading up
the 401. The signal was given.
As the shiny new black Cads and Continentals
arrived, they were met by screaming, whopping
cadets who immediately jumped on the hoods and
trunks of the cars, and then directed the drivers
to the parking lots.
Then the big moment arrived. The Inspecting
officer made his traditional march from Osier
Hall to the platform. He was escorted by fifty
gleeful and yelping cadets who skipped along
beside him. Then the squadron formed up for the
inspection. The outfit, I must say, was pretty
impressive. There were a few mishaps.
The whole third row, when being straightened
by the W02, fainted in harmony. It was quite
pitiful to see the agonized look of Richard Haze
when Commanding Officer Sumo Stu, while walk-
ing by, stepped on his toe. You are a riot, Stu!
For an airplane display four stolen jets performed
straifing e.xercises on the spectators. In the middle
of it all, the second row started taking pot-shots
at the planes, just for kicks.
In the speech by the Inspecting Officer in the
afternoon, he congratulated the squadron on its
originalitj', but strangely enough, did not give
us a half-holiday. Consequently, everyone gotup
and took off for the weekend anyway.
Now let me explain, Inspector
CAREER TALKS
The following is an excerpt from a speech given
by Mr. Zoffman, a professional anarchist, on
Careers Night, December 14, 1979
"Of course, the widest and most independent
field for careers is in the anti-subversion racket
The market for student riot helmets, cop nets,
computer burners, Viet Cong flags is so large
that universities cannot produce enough gradu-
ates to fill the spots. Conversely, this means
there are many openings for computer makers,
policeman, executives for the United Fruit Com-
pany, and Army officers at RM.C. but there
is no way "birds" taking those courses can get
through college without receiving a thorough
thrashing."

The following are excerpts from campaign
speeches given by prospective Presidents of the
Student Body, May 28, 1974.
"As far as my foreign policy is concerned, I
will make sure to step up our relations with
Branksome, B.S.S., and Havergal. As a special
treat our Department of Lands and Forests will
install cushioned chairs at our favourite sur-
rounding tree resorts. Economically, the allow-
ance will be raised to $25 a week. And if I am
elected, I will pass legislation to insure the right
of every W.A.S.P. to be a bigot or racist."
"I realize I am speaking for a minority, but
it is only a minority because the rest of you do
not have the courage to stand up for that which
may seem distasteful but what you really feel is
right. If I am elected, there will be no more swing-
ing from the chandeliers — nude — in the dining
hall. The hair will be cut, the shoes shone, and
the jackets done up. You all look like a bunch of

THE TRIALS OF PRAYER
Inspiration flowed through my bones
Thoughts trickled Hke a stream
My soul dipped into its wholest pits
As I tromped into the chapel to pray.
I picked up the pace in my anxietj'
Striding, skipping, sprinting to my seat.
Oh — the peace of mind through solitude
Was mine for the minute to come
The pew was mine to keep
Also possivity, and the peace of nothing said
But it all vanisiied as I knelt to pray
And I found my head in a cob-web.

MANIC-DEPRESSION
I'm a Fourth former in my third year at the
Senior School. (I am repeating this year.) And
I would like to say that the Administration made
a big mistake discontinuing the New- Boy System
this year. Now I know I am the guy who burned
the bed of one of the House Officers last year.
And I know I'm the kid who put the knuckles
to my fag-master. And I know I was the idiot
who "let off the stink bomb at the Rock Talk.
But that is all behind me now. The fact is that if
you thought the fourth form slump was bad then,
there is just "no way" now.
There are two things a boy can do in his
fourth form vear — incite New Boys or agitate
privileges. Both activities have vanished. No
longer can we slap faces and step on toes as New
Boys hold the doors. No longer is it fun or
rebellious to put our hands in our pockets twelve
hours a dav. No longer can we use the New Boy
washrooms' for certain illegal procedures and
blame it on them. No longer can we be heros by
telling of a "feet" in front of New Boys. You,
the Administration, have deprived the Fourth
formers of anv intrigue, excitement, purpose and
identitj- that our lives may ever have possessed
here.
I warn the Administration that if the System
is not reinstated within a month, the "slump"
will become so unbearable that I predict at least
fort>- boys will turn to arson or some other
amusement. Heed to my warning!

Minutes of the Student Council, 1969
Characters — Head
Secretary of the student council
Prefects 1-6
Class Presidents 1-12
Setting: Multi-Purpose room, Sunday morning
11:00 a.m.
Secretary — 6A has brought up the suggestion
that students be allowed to wear Hush-Puppies on
campus
Prefect 3 — One must consider the effect of such
shoes on the grass.
Prefect 2 — They do get very dirty and scruffy.
Prefect 4 — It is just that at least 80 boys have
calloused feet due to hard leather shoes.
Head — A committee will be set up to investigate
the physical and moral effects of Hugh-Puppies.
President 8—1 would like to bring to the atten-
tion of the council the overuse of French dressing
in our salads. We think that this is a separatist
conspiracj' and it irritates the skin.
Head — Our kitchen liason and his committee
will look into that.
President 11 (C.E. ) — C.E. would like to have
its own tie because a few of its members have
been discriminated against so much for wearing
their 'scholar' ties.
Prefect 5 — As we all know ties are a very con-
troversial issue at this school. I move that we
pass on.
Head — As you know, we do not like to ignore
important matters brought up by the council. I
think that the prefect body should draw up a
report on the whole scene.
Secretary — Do we have any of the reports from
the committees formed in the last meeting.
President 4 — We never got around to it.
Prefect 4 — i forgot.
President 9 — We investigated, but nothing came
out of it.
President 12 — May I suggest we set up a com-
mittee to study the committee situation.
Council — Please!

Book Reviews
THOUGHT AND STYLE
Of all the old methods of teaching that have
been thrown out in the last few years, one method
has hung on through it aJl. Most cases of
unchanged methods can be blamed on the
apathy of the students. Not so this time! The one
reason would have to be accredited to the dogged
insistance of tw^o cert£iin masters who seem to have
a stake in the above enterprise. Since the book is
a collection of essays that include anyone from
"the world's foremost economist", Barbara Ward,
to "one of the great American minds", WUliam
Fulbright, this will not take the form of a book
review but rather it will donate advise and warn-
ing for the students tackling this little orange gem.
First and foremost, never read the content as
content in the normal sense. Detect the "thought
and style", pin down the metaphors, spot the topic
sentence, and discover the tone and the mood
but never read the essays for a communicative
expyerience Admittedly each essay can claim its
own merits. But the danger lies in the after effect
of reading thirty essays. Somehow the reader
receives the impression that he should be out
fighting the Cold War.
When this point is argued, masters in general
say they had no intention of producing a general
theme and each essay is in the book not for what
it says, but how it is said. Thus answer efficiently
Eind promptly the question: "How does Sentence 7
link the first paragraph to the second?" But please,
if asked what you thought of the passage, just
bow your head in reverence.
As with cill great contributors to our education,
the benefits will only be evident much later in
life, when one is writing his M.A. thesis in English.
So, we the students of 1975, would like to call
upon all you concerned Old Boys who know the
benefits or maybe the apprehensions, to write
about them to:
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT,
TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL,
PORT HOPE, ONTARIO.
NOTE: The book "School on the Hill" canbeob-
tained now in both hard cover and paper-
back at your favorite bookstore. It has
now made the best-seller list as one of
the greatest satires on education that has
been written in the last one hundred years.

TID-BITS ON THE TRIN TRIN ART SCENE
Our fantastic acid-rock group is not with us
this year, due to over-use oftheir music motivator
. . . The paint-in of the left wall of the gym was
a tremendous success — the abstract creation was
not completed in its entirety though, because Artsy
Al got inspired and wanted to decorate the whole
school with his spray can. In the field of the
theatre, the Dramatic Society attempted an experi-
ment this term. The Society collaborated with
O.L.C. in the production of "Lust Forever". I am
forced to say it was a failure in some respects.
Horny Hugh never emerged from one love scene
to finish his act as a villain. To top it all off,
the audience got so worked up during one of
his stints they begain to chant "audience participa-
tion". But as far as natural performing goes on
the part of the actors, and as far as generating
interest among the spectators, the experiment was
a great success. One thing is certain. It is quite
apparent that the era of the homosexual play has
come to an end.

Captain's Report
1 mean, there's never been iuiything like it!
Whooo-eee! This year has been a year of firsts
at Trin Trin. A hockey team got together over
Christmas to overwhelm every team in Lake
Placid plus the Figure Skating Club. And they
got the ref, too!
The cross-country ski team set a record by
making it to Montreal and back within five weeks.
The N.C.B.B. — Northumberland County Billi-
ards Boxing, staged a mass boxing fight in the
new gj'm. We fared very well because we cheated
and entered Senior Sc-hool boys instead of Boul-
den House members. The team spirit on the
wrestling team was phenomenal. And they got so
worked up for their matches, oh, their poor
opponents — eh, Havergal! We had to abandon
the ball hockey games with the maids — due to
over-aggressiveness.
Overall, I would have to say that the boys in
general are enjoying their sports. And for all
you critics of our sports program, may I remind
you of the authentic definition of sport: "Amuse-
ment, diversion, fun." Thus, I conclude that this
year's activities have been a success.
I would like to extend my personal thanks to
the Riot Squad for their tremendous co-operation.

Coach's Report
I would like to make a suggestion for next
year's athletic program. I thiak sports ought to
become more defined. For e.xample, right at the
moment I do not know what sport I am writing
for. at what level, and I do not even know who
I ctniched. This makes things difficult for the
Colour Committee, the athletic program director
and my fellow coaches.
This concept of playing what you want when
you want with whom you want, definitely has to
go! Tackle football on the 401, volleyball at the
Granite Club, billiards in Port Hope, wrestling at
O.L.C., and ball hockey at Gage's Creek, are not
what I consider organized sports events.
This "do your own thing" campaign has gone
overboard. When it reaches the point where we
haven't seen an L.B.F. school in four years, and
no one on the staff has known of a scheduled
event more than ^vo hours in advance, it makes
it very difficult to fit in a Homecoming Weekend.
What ever happened to the grudging, competitive
spirit we had?

The True Conservative
What or who is a conservative? There are
meiny lengthy definitions which tell us what a
true conservative is, but to sum it up briefly: a
conservative is a person or group of persons
who are \-ePv- moderate and are the "middle of
the road" t>-pe. What, then, in the true sense of
the word, is the most conser\'ative aspect of our
societ>' today? I think we will all agree that the
Church is one of themost conserv^ative of our
institutions.
Thou shall not change the Church! Conserva-
tism in the church must be an unwritten command-
ment, for no great upheavals have been carried
out in any of our modern churches today. Young
people, and this is especially applicable here at
T.C.S.. don't want to accept the Church. They
say that it is old and out of date, but in the same
breath they say we need something different. The
Church is different! It is the one true contrasting
phenomenon in our societ>'. The Church provides
Everyone wants change in the Church. They
want to hear the music and literature that they
enjoy. We can hear the Beatles, John Mayall, the
Cream or any of the thousand other groups by
simply turning on the radio. Now people want
to bring this into the Church and to make the
Church music the same old "Teeny Bopper" or
Blues music which we can hear any day of the
week. We would become preoccupied with the
music, and would forget what the Church is all
about. Certainly, people would like the Church
more, they would be listening to tunes that would
be suited more to their own personal tastes. How-
ever, we would then have lost the Church and
tvirned into a record club which suits many
people's concept of life.
Recently, the Church haschanged a great deal —
from a conservative point of view. The services
are considerably shorter and greatly modified.
Most of the readings are taken from interesting
sections of the Bible. More and more modern
peace, serenity, and a relatively clean, healthy way
of life which we don't normally find today. The
problem, I feel, is that we don't want the Church
and, therefore, don't realize what it has to offer.
How many people listen to the readings in
chapel! Ver>' few of us have ever read any of
the Bible. How can one like the Church if one
does not know what it is all about?
and beautiful hymns are being written for the
Church every day. The most important change in
the Church is the number of young enlightening
ministers which we are getting today. The ser-
mons are not as dull and dry as they used to be;
if one truly becomes involved with the Church
and Church groups, one can become exceedingly
fond of it.
VVc have the freedom to believe and part-
icipate or to not believe and not participate.
The Church has tried to change and to accomo-
date the new generation. It has gone as far as
might be expected but it still reniain.s tremendously
different from the ordinary. But what is wrong?
Have you ever thought to yourself, "Maybe it's
me?" You are causing the services to be dull?
We have the freedom to try to change ourselves,
to look into what the Church has to offer, to sing
out the hymns and generally to accept the Church
as it is today. What you put into something you
get back. If we change the Church any more than
we have, it will no longer be a Church, and what
will we replace it witn? Freedom is ours to do
with what we will. Do we want a true Church with
true meaning or a false representation of our
belief?
— Peter Greene
A War Ad-lnfinitum?
History teaches us that all wars must come to
an end; no war can last "ad infinitum." This
seems to be the only reason I ask "How is the
war in Vietnam going to end?" instead of flatly
asserting "The war in Vietnam is not going to
end." I can catch no glimmer of an end from
the dark jungle in Vietnam or from the square-
round peace tables in Paris. Yet the solution
must come from either or both sources combined.
When we look to Paris and hear that diplomats,
accomplished in the art of compromise, have
spent ten weeks arguing about the shape of a
conference table to sit at, negotiations become little
more than a farce. When we look to Vietnam and
hear military experts saying that there is no
plausible military end to the war as it is being
fought now, within the next ten years, there is
little room for optimism.
When I look for the answer to my question
"How is the war in Vietnam going to end?" I
dismiss negotiations without a decisive change
on the battlefield. Edwin Reichauer, an Asian
scholar and diplomat, said "It is hard to envision,
at this stage, a negotiated settlement that is not
virtuEdly a surrender by one side or the other."
Neither side is going to surrender unless there
is a change in the military situation. The Viet
Cong are not interested in a settlement now at
Paris because they hope external or more likely
internal pressures will cause the U.S. to leave.
They maintain that unconditional halt in bomb-
ing will bring about fruitful negotiations after the
'table crisis' is over. But surely this is just a
smoke screen to delay the talks; amd, no doubt,
they have plenty of smoke bombs left in tlie form,
perhaps, of unconditional ceasefire or something
similar.
Poge 35
Thus we must look to the battlefield for a solu-
tion. I feel this can come in one of three ways,
no matter how unlikely they are. The least likely
takes form in a drastic change in U.S. policy
allowing for a declaration of war on North Viet-
nam. In this case nuclear warfare becomes use-
able. However, the U.S. people will not permit
this to happen because of the possibilit>' of a
world war. The guilt at Hiroshima remains to
haunt some now; the guilt of Vietnam would be
unjustifiable and unbearable.
The second possibility is a surrender by North
Vietnam. If the North Vietnamese government
ever becomes convinced that the U.S. will stay in
Vietnam, they may look elsewhere to gain control
of South Vietnam. A solution presents itself in the
cessation of warfare and the provision for elec-
tions. The Communist party is the most unified
and forceful partj- in Vietnam. It is estimated
that at a preliminary election they could gain
35 per cent of the vote even though they have
less support by population. It is further estimated
they could gain more control in subsequent
elections and 'capture' Vietnam. The U.S. would
have to sit and watch; no intervention would be
remotely justifiable.
The third is a virtual U.S. surrender caused
by eventual internal pressure against the con-
tinuous war which is killing so many 'American
boys'. However, once again I find this highly
unlikely, at least in the near future. Mr. Nixon
has not, as Humphrey did, come out in favour
of a cease-fire or similar peace efforts. I think
that it would be political suicide to draw out of
Vietnam now, because too many people support
the War. Also, it would cast a shadow on the
credibility of U.S. commitment throughout the
world. It might create a breach of confidence in
the United States of America in other areas and
in other fields.
If these ends sound fantastic, they are not
meant for fantasy's sake; it is rather that the
end in a forseeable future is so fantastic. A
'Time' essayist wrote:". . . the difficulty of the
Vietnam War is that though it may be a war
which neither side can win, it remains a conflict
that each side is convinced it has not lost." It is
only when the realization of defeat bears upon
one side or the other, that peace can be found."
And defeat for either side is not in sight.

The Ivory Tower
Charles was an industrious but single-minded
man with great determination but little imagina-
tion. All his life he had lived in an ancient castle,
built high up on a hill. The site was almost
perfect; the people in the local village could
easily be influenced by his wealth and power
and he was isolated from the dangers of civiliza-
tion and progress. The nearest citN- was sixty
miles away. Like any normal human being,
Charlie found that his life was organized largely
by habit. His attitudes, his daily routine, and
even his emotions weregoverned by forceof habit.
Being normal, Charlie also had his own indivi-
dual idiosyncrasy. At the rear of the castle, in the
cellar of the North Wing, there was the entrance
to an old abandoned tower. Charlie felt that this
should not go to waste and consequently made
it into a personal sanctuary. Here he built a
marble staircase, each step carefully engraved
with inlaid ivorj". There was one step for each
of his habits, each of which was outlined in
ivory lettering. Whenever he adopted a new habit
or changed an old one, he added a new step to
the staircase. It took him a very long time to
change his ways since this involved taking out
the obsolete step and replacing it with a new one,
a long tedious operation. This special staircase
he named "Tradition". Whenever he was ques-
tioned about what it was for, or why he acted as
he did, he would reply, "It's Tradition!", as if
that was self-explanatory.
Of all his children, the eldest was a boy named
Jacques. He was an impatient youth with great
imagination, boundless energ>', and a complete
lack of understanding for the other side of any
problem. He held his father in great esteem,
being his junior by several years as well as his
main beneficiarj'. Unquestioning, he went through
the monotonous daOy routine and accepted with
little objection the fact thatthe castle was becoming
outmoded and slightly inefficient. One night in
early spring, both Charles and Jacques were
badly frightened by separate dreams which were
to haunt them for the rest of their lives.
Jacques (Ircanil that tic w as trudging along in
a deep trench, dreadfully afaid to even jump up
and sec over the sides. He was one of a large
group of people trudging singly behind one
another, blindly following the footsteps of the
others before tliem. They were afraid to stop,
afraid to question why or where to, but most of
all to even think of what would happen if they
ventured over the sides of this trench which had
no beginning nor end. Jacques awoke the next
morning quite disturbed, badly frightened, and
completely exhausted.
Charhe, in his sleep, saw a vision of his whole
castle with his staircase, "Tradition", in the mid-
dle. The fields lay fallow, the stock untended, and
the casde itself was in ruin. Everythingseemedout
of date and run down. Charlie himself was an
old man, too tired to work with the heavy mar-
ble blocks either to change or add to the staircase.
All around him were mobs of people screaming
for change. Charlie, in his dream, ran to shelter
at the top of his staircase. The cr>' changed
slightly. "Down with Tradition!", they screamed.
Suddenly his whole castle was aflame and Charlie
was trapped at the top of his precious staircase.
That morning he awoke cold and shivering with
fear.
Ever since then Charliehas been verj' paranoic
about his staircase. He makes additions or chan-
ges to it only during moments of extreme stress.
Now he uses much lighter slabs of marble with
very weak mortar so that he can quickly reneg
on his decision if necessary. He remembers that
night of dreams with dread, for that was the
night that Jacques jumped out of the trench and
ran away from home.

The Student Crisis
Certainly the headline issue of youth today is
the radical student movement; never before have
so many young people been able to create such
trouble in the pursuit of some sort of ideal — be
it education, or equality. As the amount of time
spent per person on higher education increases,
we seem to have, increasingly, people who are ap-
parently little more than 'professional students'.
University ought not only be an experience in
inculcation, but also an experience in life, with
particular affinity for the educational process. I
fail to see how we can but condemn the general
attitude of student activists today.
The attitude seems to be a desire for a proper
education. This desire is rather humourous; we
are concerned, here and now, with our system,
not that of France, for example. We have tre-
mendous opportunities; perhaps it is because I've
never been a student at the university level, or
maybe my spectacles are a little too rosy, but I
see little cause for all this highfalutin' raving
about Truth, True Education and other misused
expressions of idiocy in the light of what we
have.
The universities today are loaded down with
bureaucracy; consequently the student may say
'to hell with the system'; however, he overlooks
the fact that it is his cue to leave if the air does
not agree with him, for what alternative do we
have to the red tape? Nothing? Sorry, but to me
anarchy is definitely not a groovy experience.
And then there is talk of our so-called right
to university education. We have no such right.
The world doesn't owe us a living. We have the
right to have it within our means to go — and
in Canada this right is fulfilled absolutely. Uni-
versity education is a privilege.
Granted, only a small percentage of university
students are directly involved in student revolt,
but that does not prevent us from censuring
their attitude. The case as reported of Sir George
Williams' is a mess. Anyone who stayed in the
area of the ten-hour orgy of destruction without
trying to prevent it, ought to be barred
from all educational institutions until he can
guarantee that he will uphold the system merely
for the sake of the system.
The student activitist who infringes upon the
rights of others — and there are many ways of
doing it — forfeits the privilege of higher educa-
tion. He doesn't deserve one, so the least he can
do is stop wasting the tax payer's money.

A Red Invasion
The Freeiium talked, it happened;
it was o\'er; the\' talked.
The sythe cut through the hope,
Thought not new but permitted,
People awoke afresh and happy
Afresh tt)t) happ\' for some.
Awoke under a man too sudden
A man considered one of them.
This man embarrassed them
Something which was ne\er done.
Alas! He pushed a little hard
And the hope came sliding down,
Down until it hit the bottom
But before the crash was heard
A rumble replaced it in the air.
Treaded monsters came rolling in
Menacing those in the square
Crushing thought repressing thinkers
The colour red now truly hated
It flowed from Slavic corpses.
They no longer capable of thought
WTiich was ideally what they wanted
The Freemen met and argued
But the invasion was quickly done
Now the colour red was cleansed
Patched and hidden from other's eyes.
Still the sv'the hung precariously
Slowly being raised above their heads
Until it would fail and cut again
Freeman would meet, talk again
Perhaps it would not be a Czech,
Not another who would wait and suffer
Many people were alarmed concerning NATO's
reluctance to move in and do something about
Russia's invasion of Czechoslovakia. But there
is a glimmer of hope shining out of the tragic
take-over. America showed total reluctance in a
fight whose outcome could have led conceivably
to the start of a third war. Czechoslovakia would
have been a bargain for the future of world
peace. Perhaps man's technology, which has
created weapons so great, will be an ironic hope
for peace in the future.

A Luxury — And A Responsibility
CK-er the last few years the New Boys system
has been greatly overhauled. Many aspects have
been changed, modified or completely omitted
depending upon the prefects and what their
thoughts on the subject were. I would like to
touch on a subject that to my knowledge has yet
to generate any controversy or any major at-
tempts to change it. This is, of course, fagging.
At the beginning of the year each new boy is
assigned to a prefect and has to fag for him
every day, or when his fag-master wishes, by
doing a job for him. This entails everything
from shining shoes and making beds to writing
letters to the prefect's girl fi-iend. For the prefect,
fags arc a help, a bother, an amusement and an
annoyance, but they are also a responsibility.
The prefect has acquired his position of res-
ponsibility because it is thought that he can best
help lead the school. To do this he must have a
knowledge of school life, and, hopefully, some
understanding of it. He also probably realizes
that the more a boy puts into this school, the
more he gets out of it
If a new boy sees a notice saying "Please sign
if you want to join the Jr. Political Science Club"
or the "Woodworking Club' or the "Glee Club"
he really has only a vague idea, if any at all,
about what goes on or if it might interest him.
Nor does he know where to find out. If he is a
gambler, he might sign up but if he is unsure,
as most people would be upon entering a new
school, he probably would not Clubs and activi-
ties are extremely good for the school life and
spirit. A boy can develop a talent, nourish an
interest or satisfy a curiosity; but if he doesn't
know about it, he won't care. The fag-master
should want to make him care and therefore
should do all he can to answer questions and
explain things to him and try to get him as much
involved in school life as possible.
Another way in which the prefect can help his
fag is with school work. Afresh ornovel explana-
tion might do much more than a private rehash
of what went on in class. The fag-master should
not be considered a substitute for a teacher, but
an acceptable gdternative.
The advisor system seems to work well enough
but there are some problems a boy cannot take
to an adult, a master, or perhaps just to that
certain master. This is a third way in which
fag-masters can be very useful. A fag-master
should be someone to turn TO, not FROM. They
were New Boys two or three years ago and,
although they don't know everything, they see
things in a very different light. Who knows,
maybe they once went through the same thing
themselves! Still, an open sympathetic fag-master
can be a great help in any hour of distress.
If your fag-master was not like this, you pro-
bably did not notice, but if your fag-master did
care, you probably did notice and appreciated it
For a productive, progressive, responsible and
happy school, people must care about the school
and each other; and if the prefects do n't care, then
the New Boys certainly won't

Are We Afraid of the Truth?
"451 Fahrenheit, the temperature at which book
paper ignites and bursts into flameti. "
from Ray Bradbury's novel:
FAHRENHEIT 451
To burn a book is to commit the most sacre-
ligious act against the human race; the person
who burns a book in effect says: "I am right;
everj'body else is wrong; I have no need to read
about other people's ideas." But, in reality, this
person is convicting himself; he is really saying:
"I am afraid of other people's opinions; I am
afraid of the truth — I want to destroy the truth;
I don't want my peace and quiet disturbed."
But as it is, the burning of a book is an extreme
act; we only saw it in Hitler's Germany or in
the mad world of Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit
451. Unfortunately, there is a much more serious
menace to our civilization; it can briefly be
described as mankind's inherent tendency to be
afraid of the truth, to be willing to escape from
reality into the world of the naive idealist or the
reactionary conser\^ative.
The first consideration we should make must
include the fact that idealism, like all other forces
connected with the human race, is capable of both
good and evil. It would be absurd to deny the
positive influence of idealism; the fact that it is a
great motivating force is of paramount impor-
tance; but on the other hand, we cannot afford
to overlook its inherent dangers. When idealism
becomes a crutch, when idealism becomes escap-
ism, this is the time when trouble really begins.
In the world today, there are a great number
of problems; but unfortunately, many people look
at them through tinted glasses — they believe
that their idealism will solve the problems, that
democracy and freedom will triumph, that tyrany
and oppression will be destroyed. There is also a
popular belief in the 'cult of the scientist', that
science is omnipotent, that it will eventually solve
all man's problems; these cultists think of the
scientist as the genie who needs only to snap his
fingers to solve a problem. I also might venture
to suggest that the people whohaveanundenying
faith in the progress of mankind, might be dan-
gerously close to becoming intoxicated, by their
idealism — even man's progress might have a
limit!
These are the people who are using ideadism
as a crutch; they are afraid to face life — they
are afraid of the truth about the human condition
— they are the worst sort of cowards.
The other facet of the problem is tied up with
the nature of truth. Truth is rarely eternal. What
we call truth is usually just a particular set of
values which are relevant to the present age;
therefore, we must think of truth as a dynamic
concept, not a static eternal one. Thus, we can
see that the truths, the valid statements of one
generation are not necessarily thesameforfollow-
ing generations. This fact, the dynamic nature of
truth, is the basic ingredient of human progress.
A brief look at history will show us that an age
of stagnation is usually characterized by rigid
values and eternal truths; while on the other hand
the period of progress, such as ours, is funda-
mentally an age of changing truth, an era in
which truth flows like a raging river and is
recreated every second by the actions of mankind.
Poge 41
For the present generation that is growing, the
post- Hiroshima generation, the situation is basi-
cally the same, but with one significant difference:
today we are faced with the fact that in the last
twent>' years there has been more change than
there has been in any previous twenty year period;
therefore, we can expect the values and ideals, the
truths in the making oftheupandcoming^enera-
tion to be quite different from their fathers'. Herein
lies one of the basic problems of our present age.
Unfortunately, the people who still hold the
power of the modern world are for the most
part members of the older generation; they have
lived with their values for many years and most
of them are unable to make a change voluntarily.
Thus when they are faced with the fact that some
of their cherished ideas have died, having been
swept away by change, they become afraid of the
truth — as it now is — they try to ignore it, they
cling in blind faith to a dead set of values.
These are the people who are denying truth
and by so doing they negate the basic premise
of human progress.

The Future of
Amateur Hockey in Canada
The Canadian National Hockey Team at this
moment is a farce. Canada suoposedly has the
best hockey players in the worla. The only people
who will believe that statement arepeople in North
America. The people t)f Europe kni)w \-ery little
of the Natit)nal Hockey Leajfne; they consider
the winners of the World Hockey tournament the
best players in the world. This has been the
Russians for the last eight or nine years. Canada
has not won the World Hockey Tournament
since the Trail Smoke Eaters won it in 1962. "If
Canada has the best hockey players in the world",
says a hockey orientated European, "why don't
they win the World Hockey Tournament?"
This question has been asked clear across
Canada and as yet no solution has been reached.
The present Canadian team has three or four top
hockey players but the rest would have trouble
making a senior O. H.A. team. Something has to
be done about this. One solution is to use the
present professional hockey players born in Can-
ada. This encompasses the best such as Phil
Esposito, Bobby Hull, Jean Beliveau, Gordy
Howe and numerous other players that would
make a game against the Russians a rout from
the opening drop of the puck. This has its greatest
drawback in that any of the owners, general
managers, or coaches in the N. H.L. would not
risk the chance of injury to his star or the chance
that his club might lose a key game during his
absence. There is the matter of Comrade Bunny
Ahderne not allowing the pros to play. The
difference between Russians and N.H. L. profes-
sionals is quite negligible but Commrade Bunny
seems to mind.
Another solution that has just rec-ently been
passed is that the Allan Cup be returned to the
place of prominence it once held. There is a lot
to say for this because Canada used to be repre-
sented by Allan Cup Champs such as Trail,
Whitby Dunlops and the Belleville Macfarlanes.
Senior hockey has taken a long step downward
since then. The recent Allan Cup winners, Sher-
brooke Braves, came second to last in a recent
Swedish tour. This was not against any country's
first teams. The rebuilding process would mean a
big change in Junior Players being drafted. In-
stead of going to the N. H. L. clubs and being sent
to the American Hockey League and affiliates,
they could play in Canada on a Senior Team for
one year and then go on to the N. H. L. This would
cause great consternation among the owners, etc.,
because they could lose the services of a Bobby
Orr, Derek Sanderson or Brit Selby for a year.
But surely if the Canadian public saw a chance
that Canada could be represented by such stars
they would respond favourably. They mighteven
be able to force the owners to wait another year.
This is where I think the whole future of a
Canadian Hockey Team stands. It stands with
the best Junior Hockey players from the O. H.A.,
the Western Junior and Eastern Junior Hockey
Leagues. Surely a team with players such as Doug
Acomb, Rejean Houle, Gilbert Perrault and many
others from all across Canada could, with the
practice of a year and the working together, have
a team that represents manj' of the best Canadian
hockey players and defeat the Russians. I think
the idea of a complete junior team for one year
far outranks any of the other ideas so far pro-
posed. Many junior players go on immediately
after they graduate to play Pro. If for one year
the clubs left them alone so they could play for
Canada, surely we could regain the hockey title
so many Canadians covet. This using of junior
players would constantly supply Canada with top
night hockey players.
An idea such as this needs the support of all
Canadians. If the citizens of Canada could see an
exciting team for Canada in the future and a
World Hockey Title, surely they would support
such a move.

Blues?
Blues is the music of a tormented soul. The
word has come to mean a state of mind brinking
on despair. The lyrics themselves point to this:
I believe I'm gonna lose my mind
I can't sleep sound at night
I just can't last through the day
I can't hold out much longer
Blues is singing about frustration, sorrow,
anger, despair, suffering, and in short, the prob-
lems of a tormented black generation. It can
never be denied that blues is authentic music
sung from the heart, sung with feeling. And yet,
the overpowering control of the blues over a
generation has led to a rather perverted attitude
toward life in general. Blues has become the only
medium with soul or authenticity. Human experi-
ence has been watered down to all that is sordid,
and degrading. Blues has followed the existential
trEiil which says that ultimately there is no real
hope, £md the only reality of life lies in the mar-
ginal experiences of death and sorrow. I take
exception to this. I deplore the lack of concern
with beauty and love, the other two extremes. I
cannot see that a preoccupation with hate and
sorrow is very much more than self-pity. Perhaps
it is because it is so much easier to be unhappy
than it is to be happy. And certainly blues is not
happy music.
For contrast I could mention Beethoven or
Bach, or Tchaikovsky. Their music is uplifting.
It hits a fresher and more vital nerve in the
human system, and gives rise to emotions which
are far more necessary than the miseries of
deprivation.
I may be misinterpreted as thinking that we
should forget the language of rebellion that is
brewing within our society, but I do not mean
that at all. I simply feel that it is a mistake to
dwell too long on despair, for that is not the
road to correction. Just as depression is made
more acute by self-pity, blues lives too long in
the shadow of despair. Dwelling upon it can only
lead to a more acute depression.
Strictly as music, blues is a very vitsd £ind
exciting medium, but as a way of life it sports
unseen dangers and unhealthy excesses.

. . . Something peculiar is happening to the
world's most affluent societies today. The youth
are rebelling against the "status quo" and their
rebellion is much more serious than the typical
"generation gap" that all generations face. It is a
plea for a complete change, an inevitable change;
a change from the nationalistic, business-oriented
society to a world that all men must participate
in to help mankind fight poverty, the population
explosion and war. A united world, not necessarily
politically but in cooperation. The youth want
to create a peaceful and free world — man's
ultimate goal, £md they believe that it can be done.
but they do not have the enthusiasm and support
that the youth "rebellion" has. The adults who
might be able to influencx- or effect this change
are not committing themselves. They are content
with what they have already and often uncon-
cerned about the future, the world of the youth!
I know that there are many adults who advocate
this change along with the youth. These adults
are part of the youth rebellion. I describe it as
simply "youth" because the majority are people
m their teens and twenties. When I refer to the
"adults" I actually mean the Establishment and
the status quo.
The youth are demanding change strongly
now, through their demonstrations and protesU.
They will not accept any false promises and
proposals, they want action now! They riot
within their institutions of learning because of the
It is possible if everyone will commit himself.
Those who do not will be left out. You cannot
reject it and sit down and say it is impossible
and naive. You must commit yourself for the
betterment of all mankind. The world has reached
its limit in its present state. It cannot continue
under the nuclear threat and ever-increasing social
disorder.
It is the time, then, to give up our nationalism,
forget our individual ideological conflicts and
work for peace. The youth has become disatisfied
with the adult neglect of this need for change.
Perhaps the adults are doing the best they can,
universities' lack of commitment in national
affairs and the exclusion of politics from their
educational programme. The university', being the
youth's institution, should be the first to change
and commit itself. Some universities refuse to
teach current political events and opinions in their
courses, though contemporar>' political science is
an extremely important and necessary course in
today's world. As with many adults, the university
is afraid to stick its neck out. But somebody
must, before we lose this world and its radical
youth. It is not impossible or naive because it
is going to happen; because enough people are
caring about the future and what might happen.
The youth are not ignorant, impatient "hippies";
they are concerned, they feel that something must
be done now! . . . You must commit yourself.

THE MODERATES |
CANNOT SOLVE
SATURDAY. JANUARY IS, 1969 CANADA'S MAJOR PROBLEMS
T.C.S.'s Fifth Annual Debating Tournament
was the largest and most successful yet. Twelve
schools participated and four others sent
observers; however, the twelve participating
schools were all from Ontario and Quebec, a trend
we hope to rectify.
The Tournament beganat5:00p.m. on Friday
the 17th of January, with the registration for the
visiting schools. At 7:00 there were films on the
seminar topics for the visiting schools, after which
there was an extremely successful party in the
Multi Purpose Room. Skits were put on by
groups comprised of members from different
schools. The skits were hilarious and clever,
doing a fantastic job at breaking the ice. One
"Tennis Game" will be remembered. At intervals
the Electric Rope Blues Band warmed up the
atmosphere. TTie visitors then left for the homes
where they had been billeted.
The seminars next morning, a new addition to
the programme, proved to be most interesting and
valuable. On the following pages are capsules of
the seminars. That afternoon the preliminary
debates took place. Although the level of the
debating was not edways as high as it could be,
the debates did implant some seeds in our minds.
That evening there was a welcome break from
the afternoon's hard work: the Impromptu Spea-
king Contest. These short speeches were intelligent
and witty, proving to many thelevel our debating
could reach. The Open Parliamentary' Session
after that on the resolution gave everyone a
chance to hear first-rate speaking. D'Arcy Martin
'65 and Ian Binnie '.57 were beaten by Tim Em-
bur>' '66 and Jeff Simpson, the Best Debater of
the 1966 Tournament. Following the Session,
Judge Curretly presented the awards.
Sunday the visiting debaters and their T.C.S.
hosts visited Trent University, ending up that
night at the Richards' farm, where they partied.
Following the party, they and their hosts
stayed in Toronto. Monday the group toured
around Toronto seeing such attractions as the
Museum and the City Hall. That night they
feasted at a very delicious dinner given by Mr.
O'Kell at the Badminton and Raquet Club. The
tour ended with thegroupseeingtheplay"Jacques
Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris."
The success of the Tournament is due to many
people: the ninety-odd who carted, guided, judged,
and pounded gavels; those in Port Hope who
bedded the guests for two nights; Mrs. Richards
and the members of the Toronto Ladies Guild
who prepared a huge and sumptuous dinner;
Mr. O'Kell; and many others. We would like to
thank them all.

Mr. Robert Moses on Minorities
Mr. Moses, liimsolf an liuiian. dealt with the
Indian problem. He said that many Indians wish
to retain their identity' but not through revolution.
The major problem of the Indian Affairs Depart-
ment, of which he is an official, is the Indians of
northern Quebec who have never seen a white
person. Although many Indians are not accus-
tomed to our way of life, the department has taken
Indian children from the Arctic and put them in
schools on reserves in Southern Ontario where
they haveproved themselves beyond doubt. Many
return to their lands to help repeat the process.
Mr. Moses said Canada needs a culture created
by mixing the Anglo-Saxon, French and Indian
cultures together.
Mr. B. Hodgetts on Education in Canada
The first thing discussed in this seminar was
what kind of Canadian problems were under
fire when referring to the resolution of the debate.
After some discussion, the following were found to
be some of the problems: French-English rela-
tions; economic dependence upon the U.S.A.;
regional disparity; foreign policy and defence;
Parliamentary' processes; inflation; national
unity; education; use of resources; constitutional
problems; violence; urbanization; and freedom of
the individual.
The discussion went on to the problem of
education itself. A radical form of university
education was discussed! The introduction of a
completely free education or even payments to
students in universitj'. It was pointed out that
Canada already pays for 80 per cent of a stu-
dents' college education. It was decided that there
is a great need for a national societj' and the
best way to achieve this would be through a
good education and through the communication
of information about Canadians. Many of the stu-
dents involved in the seminar stressed the impor-
tance of a school's role in the knowledge of
current events. Our thanks go to Mr. Hodgetts
for opening our eyes to some of the problems
and possibilities of education in Canada.
Professor Watkins on Economics
Professor Watkins believes Canada's major
problem is regional economic disparity'. Other
problems are inflation, unemployment, internal
relations, the stabilit>' of the international
economy. Northern Affairs and housing. The
newest problem is the trend to monopolize by
merging.
Professor Watkins predicts that in another
decade there will be a negative tax system in
the United States. We thank him for a very
informative seminar.

Professor Douglas H. Pimlott, P.H.D.,
on Pollution
As one of the five seminar topics, 'environment'
was ably put into proper perspective by Professor
Pimlott. The problem of pollution and its effects
on our world is growing. As its role in politics
and economy increases, we cannot underestimate
its importance. Professor Pimlott's major point
was that "technology is running rampant" and
only too often we forget that "man is not separate
from his environment." He cited DDT as atypical
example where we have eradicated the original
problem only to create more serious ones. Clive
Elliot and William Reese, research assistants, then
spoke for a few minutes each on more particular
difficulties.
The most notable characteristic of the seminar
was the excellent articulation on the part of the
three lecturers, and most notable shortcoming
that there was not sufficient time.
Mr. Dclton Camp on National Unity
This was a verj' constructive seminar, and
pointed out to many people the problems involved
in National Unity.
It was decided that to achieve Canadian unity,
there would have to be a redistribution of wealth
and a proper education of the people. The utility
of this unity would be to communicate and to
understand different ideas with open minds. It
was discussed that guidelines were needed in
order to achieve a less violent atmosphere once
this unity was obtained. First, definition of the
terms on which the country would have
to work. Secondly, each minority group would
feel that they are being respected by the Govern-
ment and that they are being treated without bias.
In order to have unity there must be a sense
of unity. This was found to be one of the most
important aspects towards national unity. Most
people felt that the Monarchy was a positive step
towards national unity. It was pointed out that
Canada is one of the four successful non-federa-
tions in the world. We thank Mr. Camp for
leading such am interesting seminar.

Open Parliamentary Session
"Radicals are prepared to fight.
Moderates are chosen to be right. "
The climax of the Fifth Annual Debating
Tournament was the open Parliamentary discus-
sion on Saturday night.
Speaking in favour of radicalism were D'Arcy
Martin, a former Head Prefect, and Ian Binnie,
an Old Boy and former speaker of the Cam-
bridge Union. Opposing them with strong argu-
ments and fierce rebuttals were Tim Embury,
another Old Boy of the school, and Jeff Simpson,
a graduate of U. T.S.
D'Arcy Martin began the session with a strong
argument for the radicals, in which he pointed
out that the moderates had not had much success
as yet. Tim Embur>' quickly established the
moderates on firm ground by producing an
example of a radical, Adolf Hitler, and a moder-
ate, John F. Kennedy. Ian Binnie refuted the
previous speakers remarks superbly and wenton
to refer to moderates as men with "fallen arches,
hunched shoulders and dandrufP. The final guest
speaker Jeff Simpson managed to win the house
over to the moderate viewpoint by taking a firm
and sincere stand against radicalism.
A live house, as was present, and all thought
of the apathy that had played a part in the
arguments of the afternoon's debates was for-
gotten.
Following the four leading speeches, the spea-
ker, Mitchell "Jay" Kelner, invited members of
the house to speak. Although a majority of those
rose from the house were T. C.S. boys, their
remarks were often amusing and always well
said and well worth listening to.
After an hour of open debating, the speaker
called on His Honour Judge J.C.N. Currelly,
who acted as adjudicator for the evening session.
Having expressed his surprised satisfaction at the
quality of the evening debate, he went on to
summarize briefly the art of debating.
The speaker then called for a division of the

Press Coverage of the T.C.S. Debating Tournament
The press coverage of our Annual T.C.S. Debating Tournament
was hopelessly inadequate. We, the students, worked hard to arrange
a gathering which would benefit others from all across Canada.
Newspapermen had the odd report on the back page of the big-
gest, most important papers in the country. One newspaper even had
the audacity to print absolute lies to improve the article. They then
printed it in a place where people would read the misleading report.
""Revolution! - Hooray!" shouted close to three hundred students
in the audience, as the lanky student from Quebec shifted his wad
of gum and tossed a lock of hair out of his eyes". This small article
written by one of our irresponsible Canadian newspapers is untrue
and slanderous.
If this is all the news-media can do to publicize attempted so-
lutions to our numerous problems, it cannot be doubted that we
are somewhat discouraged and that future plans for similar con-
structive sessions might be lessened.

L. B. F. Debating
Ridley November 22
U.C.C. February 21
Resolution: This House approves of the influence
of nationEilism in the world today.
T.C.S. had one advantage from the beginning:
the battle field was to be Osier Hall. Grandfield,
the Prime Minister, began by defining the word
'nationalism' as "the influence of the people's
devotion to their country." He then went on to
show how apeopleneedsvariety, identity, inspira-
tion and freedom in their politics and that they
would be lost in the world of the opposition. The
opposition argued that these same emotions tend
to retard an emerging nation's progress, citing
examples of the Chinese Civil War, the Biafran
problem and the Middle East. Pete Greene of
T.C.S. showed how in such a varied country as
Canada, nationalism is the only binding force.
The judges gave the debate to T.C.S. Although
the vote of the House gave an overwhelming
majority to the government, T.C.S., the debate
was an excellent one, with fine speaking coming
from both sides and from the floor. Cowans,
Greene and Gr£mdfield were awarded Debating
Ties following this debate.
Resolution:
obedience.
This House approves of civil dis-
This debate was hotly contested, but when
the smoke from the battle cleared, U.C.C, backing
the resolution, was the winner. Peter Meltzer of
U.C.C. was outstanding as Prime Minister. Willie
Molson of T.C.S. also gave a humourous and
convincing argument.
The government showed civU disobedience as a
last desperate move for progress, only to be
used when a people is hopelessly hemmed in by
useless laws and systems. The opposition on the
other hand struck a more diplomatic note, with
the extremist element compromising with the
conservatives.

S.A.C. February 28
U.T.S. March 7
Resolution: This Hiuise prefers green to blue.
It is obvious from the resolution that the topic
must be argued with humour. However, S.A.C.
attempted to be dr>' and serious, which was
perhaps their major mistake.
T. C.S. . supptjrting the resolution, ga\'e exam-
ples of the wortli of the colour green. They
showed how green is the cok)ur of life, the colour
of chlorophyll, the colour of spring; and how
blue represents depression, citing the 'blues' as an
example. S.A.C. followed much the same line of
thought, giving examples of the psychological
impression the colours gave; but they did not have
anywhere the same amount of humour as the
government in their presentation. The House rea-
lized this and gave T.C.S. a majority to win the
debate.
Graham Ambrose, as the Prime Minister, ar-
gued convincingly and humourously, as did
Scott Pearl and David Craig.
Resolution: 'Iliis House approves of coppingout
This debate, the fmal one of the season, was
to decide the winner of the Kulford Cup trophy.
Eric Foster, Dave O'Kell, and Mitch Kelner
bussed down to Toronto along with a bus full
of supporters to take on U.T.S. They were to
argue for the opposition.
There was some trouble debating the topic
from the outset, U.T.S. arguing the topicfromlhe
angle which was least controversial, changing the
topic to something like "This house approves of
taking a holiday". The opposition pointed out the
fallacy of their argument to the house and judges,
however. By poking a little fun at Thoreau, who
appeared to be the government's guru, and by
arguing logically on responsibility to one's self
and society, T.C.S. barely squeaked out a triumph
by a 7 per cent margin. The suspense ended, and
Trinity brought back the Fulford Cup.

Dramatics The Dramatics Society has expanded greatly
this year: onto a new stage, and the addition of
Messrs. Burns and Robertson as directors. A
dramatics library now exists in the basement of
the Chapel in the new Drama storeroom.
Dramatic offerings have greatly increased in
both number and quality. 'Our Town', a modern
classic by Thornton Wilder, which requires a
sensitive sympathetic audience, was directed by
Mr. Gordon to a success which was probably
far more meaningful to the actors than to the
school-boy audience.
The experimental One-act Play Festival, cer-
tainly proved the value of competition in Theatre.
Lakefield put on the play 'The Marauders', Port
Hope presented Albee's 'The Zoo Story' and
T.C.S. injected a little macabre humour with
'Sorry, Wrong Number'. Perhaps it also proved
that no matter what the standard of acting, our
choice of plays of late may not have been up to
snuff.
'Oliver!' was directed by Mr. Burns and Mr.
Gordon. The revolving stage by Mr. Gordon is a
very important addition to our stage equipment
and was a very effective set for 'Oliver!'. Others
helped too: who will forget Mr. Bishop's superb
backdrop of the London skyline?Fineperforman-
ces were given by Maben Smith in the title role.
Bob Rutherford as Fagin, Ian Medland as the
Artful Dodger, and Hope Gibson as Mr. Bumble.
The play received standing ovations for both
performances, which does not occur too often at
T.C.S. This has been the most successful season
yet. Three cheers for the Thespians!

The Watchman
Each day he walks up from the town
And back again at night.
On old weak legs which don't seem able
to walk.
Watching the ground with eyes that hardly see,
In tattered rags for clothes,
A scarf and a toque.
He seems to live nowhere but walks this road
And doesn't see the bare oak boughs above him
Which writhe and jibe in a sinister dance of
winter.
With the music that he suns — the wind's cold
song.
His crooked person wavers with each step
As his scarf and dirty hair blow in the
wind.
And the stone steps below my window —
Those crooked rough stone steps —
I think will kill him in the end.
As he stumbles on the highest one
And falls without sound or cry,
A cold heap of bones at my door.
He owns no other coat or shoes or scarf
And seems to feel no weather but the cold
And seems to see no sunlight, only the street
lamp.
And the grey and gloomy silver of a clouded
over day.
Those melancholy and defeated eyes
Are only aged and bloodless sockets of
flesh.
Which only see the memories
And only want the past
And cannot see my pity
Or my wish to see him die.
I've seen him hobble down his narrow alleys
Like a crippled animal beaten by the years.
Like a soldier, too weak to fight, too proud
to drop.
And cease his struggle to lift a spoon
And cease his torment and his pain
And sink down into his grave
And take his rest
I've heard his blind and stumbling footsteps
Sound and echo through his cobble-stone slum.
And heard the silence of lonliness
Over a shop, within four walls
Where he waits and hopes and watches and prays
For day to dawn for him again.
And the stone steps below my window —
Those crooked rough stone steps —
I think will kill him in the end
As he stumbles on the highest one
And falls without a sound or cry
* cold heap of bones at my door.

Saint Andrews Blues
I was sitting all alone one day
When above me was a sound
And as I looked slowly up
A space ship did come down.
From aboard the ship appeared
The strangest thing I've seen
And then this thing walked up to me
A little man of green.
" Before you see my leader. Sir,
I must ask of you,
How can such a small green man
Come from a sky so blue?"
He looked at me and said, "It's blue
From here, with human eye,
But have you ever seen the thing
From fifty miles high."
"It seems upon this planet, too
As everywhere I've been
The colour that is one of life
Is my favourite colour, green."
" But don't cry, though it's too bad
That it's not part of you
At least you're not that open,
Cold, dejected, dismal, blue."
Then he hopped in his spaceship
The strangest thing I've seen
But I think I learned a lesson
From that little man of green.

Moses Dinwiddy once was free, free he was
happy but of all this he was unaware. Problems
of the educated had never stirred his green peace
because formal education he had never known.
Better the lesson of numberless hill, by slow
stream, in wild forest, an isolated farm: here he
lived, there he knew. For the broad scope of
humanitj' he wondered but never had his wonder
reached thirst; young he was and not old enough
to be bored. People were, and are, sparse in
those ancient mountains of the south; the land is
wild and hard. Now Moses was of good folk;
sweated, drunk, cursing, and pure, they were
earth people who cared for nothing but life. Their
narrow homestead and odd reunions of the hill
men were his only knowledge of man, but he
was satiated. He had health, himself, and the quiet
godliness of his beautiful hills. And this was
enough, Moses lacked nothing in his virgin white
world of the nature being. Ten years the earth
had accepted his light presence; in ten years he
had never doubted the gold of its worth.
Spring came to his eleventh year and he was
frantic in the awakened roar of the hills. Joy-
fully he eyed the coming of his summer haunts,
joyfully he eyed the coming ofhis summer haunts.
But in this season his end came; never again was
he to recover the youthful purity of his unwitting
love for solitude. He visited a town that month;
not for the first time but for the first time his
spirit walked defensively aware. His twelfth year
loomed ahead and in its wake he had gained a
sensitive pride. Here he carried it softly, knowing
of its fragility. There were city people in the town.
From the ageless paths of Indian and deer:
coursely cemented, man, how rough your grgiin:
they had entered briefly, only looking for travel-
ler's refreshment and gasoline. These first few
Moses saw and in their presence he stumbled,
and lost forever the rhythm that had been. Far
away, alien, the city was casting its gleaming
web. These fantastic beings, so flowless, so un-
like, they brought to him an all-encompassing
cloud of blinding flash and enticing glimmer.
They dazed and dazzled him; so smooth, the
newTiess. They ruined him. Driving off, down and
gone, back to their Idcking, striving mass of
entwined human filth. The web had caught and
now snared was the freshly scarred soul of
Moses Dinwiddy. Hill's bones, their secret you
unwittingly carry, hill child, today tomorrow and
forever. The city grew, the hills dimmed until
grown he left.

The ghost-like face peers through the store
front window, worrying frantically whether her
candy display is "pleasing to the eye". She worries
about her nextcustomer, whether thecustomer will
endanger her security by reminding her of the
world outside her little store shell. She is scared
of that outside world.
Tlie bearded long hair, his head darting left
and right, is trying to turn at the intersection in
his Ford Mustang Deluxe. Will he impress the
sharply-dressed young blonde and also the hippy
clad, 'beat' chick'.' He likes the rich life, but also
the wild life. He is scared that he will be rejected
by the wild-onces in the co-op for his wealth, and
then be rejected by the cocktail set for his uncon-
ventional appearance. He is scared of that in-
security.
A man in a dark trench coat stands on the
corner, puffing furiously on a cigarette, surveying
the situation through his dark, curved shades.
He waits impatiently forhis afternoon rendezvous
then to plan the night's events, when he will
pick up a 'quick buck.' He is scared that someday
his partner will not be there, and life is lost.
A twenty-year-old with an acne-skinned face
scurries by the shops with a "God help me'
expression. One arm carries a bundled baby while
the other drags a lost and uncreative woman. He
is scared that it may happen again with someone
else.
A photographer leans up against the wall of
a building caressing his 35 millimetre zoom
lens camera, smiling as he indulges lustfully in
his secret observance of life. He is scared that
at some point, while developing a picture of a
four car pile-up, that he may become emotionally
involved.
The country-boy wearing his jean jacket and
pants to match, struts by with his four buddies.
The five together with their slick, black, pointed
boots and hair to match walk five abreaist, shout-
ing and cursing, then finally zero in their cat-
calls on the shaply redhead across the street.
They are scared that someday they will not be
heard.
The middle-aged man inconspicuously glides
along, his head bowed under the burdening
weight of aging grey hair. Not even in full view,
you recognize that grimaced frown of a person
concerned with his surroundings and its conse-
quent effects. He is scared that someday he will
not care.
These are the fears one calls realities — always
there, never escaping, yet never known — except
to the observer.

SUBWAY GIRL
Immaculate platitudes upon your bloodless lips
bounce strained upon the shiny walls
and loose themselves shamefully
down forbidden tunnels
to be met and splintered by a screaming train.
Silent walls and muddy platforms of yellow
exhibit your meaningful spit —
spit more natural,
more human than the words freshly loosed
from your mouth,
more desirable than the essence of your eyes.
—your eyes, wasted cesspools of fear
and defence; bloodshot and searching-
horrid in their testimony.
I see your tangled hair escape its careful
placing,
caught in the greedy gusts of wind.
Then you rush, artificially swaying,
into the door fearful,
so fearful of being left alone.
You seat yourself and pluck your pluming
and reveal your only charms—
and how lacking in charm they are.
1 saw your ragged glove
before you concealed it.
Your eyes find me out and I marvel:
with desperate plea your eyes ask me to
acknowledge you
and fearful that I may hurt all the more
if I turn.
I glance and oblige.
I wonder,
that if I dared to extend a finger,
your visage might break
and shattered expose you.
But my finger is not the one that will,
for I am selfish— I find it too eeisy to
feel disdain— thein to pity and heal.
Yet I would, you know— if circumstances
prevailed and gave opportunit>'.
It is no fault of mine tiiat I do not dare
—it is not—
I lie, God how I lie.
Mine is the hateful sickness of sitting eind
observing, and being able to save none.
I smile cjnically and you interpret me
falsley, yet I cannot take back my smile,
I would not—
I even extend to you my eyes, entertaining a
notion, that at least I may give you
some happiness —
but no satisfaction falls to me,
for your interpretation is lost to my
awareness.
The station reached, I stand and exit.
But like an unwelcome apparation she
overtakes me, hurriedly with forced sway,
and moves to the joining platform.
There you wait fearfully lest you should miss
your train and be alone.
Immaculate platitudes upon your bloodless lips
bounce once again along the shiny walls;
while I in the shadows realize my platitude —
and disdainfully spit.

COUNTRY WAIF
A cold day in the free land
as I stumble through snow-banks
and fall over memeories;
my walk takes me down to he old
rail-yard.
The wind turns my thoughts;
no one has known me,
known me.
Laughing, the freight cars pass;
their voices mingle with the wind.
Drawing conclusions
on the station wall.
Soon they disappear, leaving me cold;
The sun flies out from behind the cloudy
blanket,
pouring warmth into my blood.
I think again on one has known me;
adl is here.
An ancient bum rises from behind a
pile of black coal;
I shake my pockets and the rhythm
of three pennies
falls upon his dusty ears.
I toss him a nickel
and command him to eat,
yet he will be dead by the time he
reaches the end of the line.
Who is singing?
No one;
It is the wires; they call like high pitched
mourners.
No one;
thinking, I pu.sh through
the weaving snow.

P. D. V. Morris
He scoffed when he heard,
"It built your character."
He sneered as he read,
"It makes you a man."
The establishment
What a farce!
The epitomy
What a paradox!
"He went in with the character he had
he'll come out with less."
Yet his folly
blinded him from reality.
He could not see the mouse
crawl out of its doormat hole.
He could not feel the tortured mind,
the internal strife,
the agonized defeat,
of 'development through adversity.'

The Life and rimes
Once upon a time, and in (of all places) a
cabbage patch, there existed a friendly but plump
cabbage named Wait Now Walt was nothing
special (as cabbages go) but his way of life is
interesting.
He wEis a fat vegetable, suid one might call
him round, and unless the day was particularly
bright, he w£is a sickly green colour. Of course,
he was not to blame for this (or so he said) and
he seemed to be content with his lot — and ugly
colour. He saw airound him all sorts of colourful
(lowers and fruits, but they were themselves, and
he was himself, and apparently there was no
reason to believe that there could or would be
any connection between the two. - Another thing,
he never was very sturdy, and his protective
coverings fell off from time to time, leaving him
exposed — but he was a vegetable, and vege-
tables were meant to be soft. At any rate, there
was not much he could do about it, was there?
He has never been called broad-minded, and
even Walt himself this was not surprising. He
has never been anywhere. He has never roUed
down the path to see Mrs. Marshe's rock garden
nor has he even looked around the next corner.
In short, he has lived all his life in his square
foot of soil, in the comer of the vegetable colony.
Wedt didn't resilly have any desire to roam; the
consequences might be too great But we shouldn't
be too worried, he seems to exist quite comfor-
tably.
His inactivity disturbed his keepers, and they
replaced his soil with new, rich, warm earth, but
it didn't really do very much good. The new
ground was only two days old when he had
finished gobbling up all its good food. He had
gone on a binge for a while, but soon things were
back to a slow normal.
Walt's fate was to be expected, seeing that he
was a vegetable. His life of eeise was rapidly
terminate, as people began to use him. At first
they only used parts of him in stews and such,
but on one particular day they took him to
pieces eind served him out to some other people.
There is not much out of the ordinary in this
tale; it is simply the life of a common vegetable.

MASTER OF THE EARTH
I have stood,
An omnipotent colussus,
Towering over continent and ocean.
I have moved mountains,
For I could warp the laws of nature,
And alter, at my will, inflexible time!
I looked down at morteds.
Who spend their short lives labouring.
And said: "Surely there is no creature
more pitiful than them."
I was melancholy, though I owned the globe.
Then, there emerged a demigod,
Whose awesome power matched mine own,
And he usurped me, and stripped me bare.
I have grovelled,
A filthy, starving slave;
Scratching in the soil for food.
I have sweated blood,
And toUed until I could move no more,
And loved my fellow man, and felt peace.
I have beheld the tyrant titan,
Who's yoke I suffered and struggled \mder,
Then I said: "Surely there is no creature
lower than he."
I felt content, though I owned nothing.

BIGSIDE HOCKEY
Captain's Report
Our 13-4-1 record indicates a successful year
but this is not so. Three of our four losses were
important games. Northwood defeated us 4-0,
leaving us in second place at the Lake Placid
Tournament; U. C.C. and Ridley defeated us
5-3 and 6-3 respectively to put us out of L.B.S.
contention.
On two occasions the team showed a great
deal of desire and determination. At Lake Placid,
having lost to Northwood, we needed to defeat
the Gunnery by 1 1 goals. Northwood had beaten
them 8-1, and we had lost to Northwood. The
team rallied to a 13-0 victory over the Gunnery
to put us back in the race. The second occasion
saw us down 4-1 to Appleby, but the team came
back to win 6-4.
This year's team had scoring power: we total-
led 112 goals, while allowing only 56. We held
opposing teams scoreless on three occasions, and
were shut out ourselves only once.
Our big weakness was the lack of ability to
perform well in an important game. This has
been the problem of T.C.S. hockey teams for
years. We are good enough to compete and con-
tend in the league, but not good enough to win.
The only remedy I can see is for the teams of
the future play more games, and at a higher
level of competition. This year's team scored an
average of 7 goals per game, and allowed an
average of 2.4 goals during the 13 game exhibi-
tion series. These are impressive totEils but they
failed to prepare us for the L.B.S.
If we are to do well in our league, we must,
in the future, be conditioned to above the L.B.S.
standard. We must play more exhibition games
against stronger competition if we are to be
expected to dominate and win an L.B.S. title.
I would like to thank Mr. Goebel, not only for
coaching us through the season, but also for his
devotion to the game.

Captain's Report
If this year's team is indicative of the future
Middleside's then the "Keystone Cops" are a
thing of the past This year's team played as a
unit, and before this year was half begun the
lines started to work together. As captain, I could
always expect two things. The first was a desire
to win, and providing we did, a Horse Laugh at
the end of the game.
Spirit came naturally, due to the collection of
clowns on the team, but any skill that we had
came from Mr. Goebel. I can still hear him
yelling at us to skate harder and to pass the puck.
To Mr. Goebel, I would like to say thanks for
endowing his knowledge of the game upon us.
Also to Mr. Campbell, who coached us when
Mr. Goebel was away, I would like to say thanks
for his great coaching and helpful between-period
remarks.
Finally, I would like to say that in my mind
there is only one thing that is better than winning,
and that is the satisfaction that comes to you at
the end of a good season of hockey. I feel that
we, as a team, are satisfied.

Littleside Hockey
Captain's Report
Littleside will not exactly go down on record
as one of the more winning teams. A najor
problem was that we had a considerable amount
of difficultj' in scoring. There were some games,
for example the S.A.C. game, where we matched
them side for side, but just couldn't seem to find
the net.
Oddly enough, the midget line of Redelmier,
Swift, and Colliver was the line which produced
the most goals.
This year's Littleside, similar to last year,
showed great potential and tried hard through-
out the majoritj- of the season, even though we
lost the majority of our games.
The first Lakefield game was Littleside's best
game of the season. It was a very close game,
the breaks finally coming our way. The lone
goal of the game was scored by Redelmier on a
breakaway.
It is very hard for a losing team to have a
great deal of team spirit and initiative. However,
there was definitely some evidence of it. Take, for
example, our series with U.C.C. They skated us
into the slush at U.C.C, we came back very
fired up and provided a very fast and exciting
game which could have gone our way with a bit
of luck.
I would like to give my sincere thanks to Mr.
Campbell for his efforts to produce a winning
team. It's too bad that we couldn't have won a
few more for him. Also I would like to thank the
rest of the team for although not a winning, an
enjoyable season.

War Eagles
I.S.A.A. Champions
Page 82
Captain's Report
If ever there was any doubt as to the appro-
priateness of the name 'War Eagles' it was all
but erased in the final game at S.A.C.
With the return of only one colour player
from last year's second place L. B.S. team, 'O.J.'
was faced with a seemingly insurmountable task.
Fortunately for 'O.J.' he was able to acquire in
a trade with Quebec an outstanding guard and
violently tempered rebounding artist. Hart Drew
having obtained his release from Middleside
Hockey and George Robb making the jump from
Littleside, coach Simpson had the makings of a
championship team.
Without the spirit and ability that emanated
from the bench, this would have been an ordinarj'
team. Due to the efforts of Dave Shivas, Rick
Kayler, Jon Dreyer, Chris Cakebread, Ian Mc-
Gregor, and Brian Herman, coach Simpson had
plentj' of depth to rely upon.
But the most important factor in winning the
I.S.A.A. Championship was the abundance of
spirit throughout the team.
This year the War Eagles proved that it is
not impossible for T.C.S. to win an I.S.A.A.
Championship; in fact, we feel that this was the
beginning of a trend.

DISTINCTION AWARD - B/S BASKETBALL
H. LEEWHELAN
As capteiin, Lee led the "War Eagles" to the
first I.S.A.A. Senior Basketball Championship
and undefeated league season.
Offensively, Lee was the leading scorer on the
team. He scored 117 points over the course of
the season for an 11.7 average per game and
scored the single game high of 27 points.
Lee's offensive accomplishments are under-
scored by the excellence of his tenacious defensive
play. He captured twice the rebounds of any
other team member and introduced the blocked
shot as an effective defensive weapon.
An emotional competitor who both led and
inspired his team, Lee personally' demonstrated
and c-ultivated in the team the unshakeable con-
fidence in their own ability that is a vital factor
in a championship team.
L«e WTielan's leadership, infectious confidence
and distinctive playing ability will not soon be
forgotten by those associated with him.
MARK T. WEEDON
As vice-captain, Mark helped lead the "War
Eagles" to an undefeated league season and the
first I.S.A.A. Championship.
Mark was the finest center in the league. The
third leading scorer on the team with 83 points
for an average of 10.3 points per game, he was
the second highest single game scorer with 25
points. Despite missing three games with an
injury, Mark was the leading offensive rebounder
and the number two defensive rebounder. He is
a superb technician, an able student of the game
and is constantly improving.
WTiat makes Mark truly outstanding is his
cool proficiency in a clutch situation. Twice he
has won games by his determined play in the
final minutes of the fourth quarter. Mark was
instrumental in our come-from-behind victory
over U.C.C. as he single-handedly outscored
the entire U.C.C. team in the final period.
In addition to these exceptional individual
efforts, Mark distinguished himself as the most
consistent offensive and defensive mainstay and
team player on the squad.

■^'^
R. CRAIG ARMSTRONG
Craig was unquestionably the outstanding
"floor general" in the league and instrumental
in directing Bigside to the first I.S.A.A Senior
Basketball Championship.
Deceptively proficient, as some athletes are, he
does not appear to be "that good" until you
play against him or try to take the ball away
from him. "Army" was the finest ball handler on
the team.
In his offensive position, he theoretically is
not expected to score a great deal; however, Craig
exploited the position to score 102 points with a
10.2 average and became the second leading
scorer on the team.
Defensively his position required him to cover
the most territory and apply the only outside
pressure we exerted. This he did with skill, en-
durance and determination while remaining re-
markably foul-free in a potentially dangeous
situation.
"Army's" reaJ value to the team was his
ability to direct the team on the floor and control
the game tempo. With his "basketball sense", he
was consistently the right guy, in the right spot,
at the right time to make everything go. A truly
distinctixe accomplishment.

Middleside Basketball
Captain's Report
In past years Mddleside B-Ball has been a
"modest" team, and this year was no exception.
We had the potential but lacked that extra drive
which is the necessary ingredient for success. This
was evident in our games 'abroad'. At both U. C.C.
and S.A.C. we started ofTstrongly and played with
confidence, but in the second halves of both
games we lacked that spark that had earlier given
us the lead. At T.C.S. we had more drive, beating
Appleby, losing to U.C.C. in overtime by one
basket, and giving Ridley a good run for their
money. In these games we were fired up, but
once again needed the spark that was with us
in our practices.
The outside shooting of Candlish, Robertson
and Price accounted for a large number of the
points, while Seagram tapped in rebounds. De-
fensively, Wilson and Dodgson also showed
skill in rebounding, Dodgson also playing well
under the basket of the opponents.
Our thanks to Bruce Fulford for his greatly
appreciated efforts as manager and speciad thanks
to our coach Mr. McDonald for all the time and
energy he devoted to the team.

Littleside Basketball
Captain's Report
At first our Littleside basketball team looked
hopeless, many boys never having played basket-
ball before. As a result we lost several of our first
games, none of them part of the League season.
Through the direction and backing ofMr. Baker,
Littleside began to shape up. It wasn't till our
defeat at Appleby that we realized we could be-
come a good team and have a chance at the
championship. After Applebj-, we played U.C.C.
twice, both extremely close victories. With a three
game winning streak, we became extremely confi-
dent in ourselves and expected to win our next
game with Ridley. However, our attitude quickly
changed as we played the toughest and most
'psyched up' team of our season, two of our top
players fouUng out. Yet we won. At Ridley we
fingilly discovered a Littleside star, Keb Irwin,
who from then on scored an average of 20 points
per game. After Ridley and several local games
with Port Hope and East and West Cobourg, we
improved tremendously and hoped to bring the
L.B.S. championship back to T.C.S. for asecond
year in a row.
However, our last hurdle was a tough one,
S.A.C., who were also undefeated, winning most
of their games by a margin of 20 points. Many
of us, although hopeful for a victorj', expected
to lose by a large margin; but the game was the
closest game we played, with T.C.S. ahead at the
half time, both teams battled it out finally to a
39-36 victor>' for S.A.C. Although defeated and
depressed about losing the L.B.S. Championship
by 3 points, we were proud of playing a good
close game with S.A.C. Looking back at thepathe-
tic team we started out with, our good season was
a miracle, perhaps due to Mr. Baker.

Squash
Captain's Report
". . . Obviously, you won't get anywhere this
year, so you should work on your younger boys
and build for the future ..." So prophesied a
certain master, who spoke wisely but was proven
to be exaggerating the case. The squash team did
surprisingly well this year, considering that four
out of five of the senior team last year left, and
three of this year's top six were third formers.
We did not play as many games as we hoped
this year, but the standard of opposition was very
high indeed. Three boys played in the Ontario
and Canadian Junior Championships, and it was
experience like those two tournaments which gave
us the satisfaction of learning and getting on top
of the game. We also had good matches in the
T.C.S. Invitational Tournament (averj- success-
ful Tournament, won this year by Clive Caldwell
of Ridley), against York University, the Toronto
Cricket Club, and Badminton and Racquets Club,
and several others.
Our last match was the L.B.F. tournament
We came last, but were within one point of second
place and two points of first place; we were far
from out of the running in a dose tournament. I
leave to the imagination what would have hap-
pened if our number three man, Geoff Somers,
had not been sick with the measles . . .
Prospects do look good for the future with
three out of five boys returning, and a good
selection of young boys.
After smiling, tucking in our shirts and
running his "Union Jack" excercise, we must of
course, thank Mr. Goering, our coach, who put
up with a good deal and still finished the season
quite healthy. We must also thank Mr. Rick Gaunt
and Mr. Ernie Howard for coming down to coach
us. Their tips will be remembered.

Swimming
«
tiiii Nil ^.111
Captain's Report
The future potency of the swimming team
brightened considerably with the return of Mr.
Kirkpatrick from Scotland and the inclusion of
Mr. Wilton on the coaching staff. The knowledge
that it would receive efficient and serious coaching
after a year of inefficient training helped spur the
team on, and build up the confidence of the
individual members.
The re-establishment of this confidence is the
most important single step that can be taken
towards the nurturing of a championship team,
and, although the short range results of this
newly found confidence seem no better than those
of previous years, there is still the inexorable fact
that it has started the long hard building process
to a team with the power and will to win, in reality
as well as desire. Confidence in one's team
indicates confidence in oneself which is essential
if one is to do well in a sport in which success
is entirely dependent on a group of individuals,
each racing against other individuals.
The team received two excellent rookies this
year, in the form of Andrew German, and Don
Davies, both of whom are in the third form and
are, even now, serious contendors for L. B. F.
records in their respective strokes, those being the
two hundred yard freestyle and the fifty and
hundred yard backstroke.
Two boys who madetheirdebutlastyearflour-
ished under the superior coaching of this year's
team, and present major threats to the other
teams. These two are Dave MacFarlane, who
swims the breast stroke, and Jeff Conyers, who
swims the Fly and the individual medley. With
this young and now experienced base from which
to build, there seems to be great hope for the
future.
Diving, which has long been the "odd man
out" as far as swimmers are concerned, has
received a boost by the interest shown by several
third and fourth form members of the Gym team
and Littleside hockey team. Jeff Scott and Hamil-
ton Narby dove for the team at the L. B.F. meet
on March 8, and though they stood poorly, they
made a good enough showing to merit continua-
tion of the use of these boys. They showed more
than enough promise to convince thecoachesand
team members that with sufficient practice in
coming years they too will be able to aid the
team with wins in the diving competitions.
On behalf of the Vice Captain. Tony Layton,
and myself, I would like to thank all those who
swam on the junior and senior swimming teams,
and Mr. Kirkpatrick and Mr. Wilton for thetime
and energy spent in workon thisyear's team, and
I would like to extend best wishes for good luck
in the season of 1969-70.

Captain's Report
Although the Gym team's record was not as
impressive as in previous years, the team had a
good showing on each apparatus in all meets.
The team started out with a lack of strength
on the Mats but with the help of Mark Heffermen
and thetenacitj' of Geoff Scott and Tom Armstrong
this was soon changed.
Special credit must be given to John Sands
who excelled on the Rings and greatly improved
his High Bar and Parallel routines.
Great progress was madeon the Pommel Horse
by Mike Douglas and Doug Armstrong. The
improvement shown on this apparatus was the
result of many long hours of work on their part.
Our strength in Vaulting came from Dave Gibson
and Glen Mac Neill whose mad style gave the
team quite a reputation as well as a few scares.
Our reputation as a High Bar team was not
let down as great showings were made by Carey
Leonard, Dave Gibson and Tom Armstrong as
well as John Sands. Dave Gibson and Glen Mac-
Neill also made good showings on the Parallels.
Our future looks bright with such promising
gymnasts as Geoff Scott, Bob Grynock, Keven
Gillen, Tom Weir and Neil Cormie who have
fit in well with the Gym team.
REMEMBER
- when Mark Heffeman lost his way in the dim
light of his 'Free Cal' routine? Cartwheels,
anyone?
- when it was discovered that Dave Gibson's
hazj' look was really smoke?
- when Geoff Scott made a pit stop in the middle
of his 'Free Cal' routine to put his tires back on?

Skiing
As a school sport, reborn only last year
by such enthusiasts as Duart Campbell, skiing
(alpine and cross countrj') has become a popular
sport. Approximately sixty boys were involved
with skiing this year although not all of them
were always on the bus that went to Peterborough
Ski Club at Bethany almost every Wednesday
Saturday, and Sunday. The snow conditions were
reasonably improved from lastyear except during
mid-January, as the rain fell; all the skiers were
forced off the slopes to "think snow".
Alpine Skiing
Those of the alpine racers who had Southern
Ontario Ski Zone racingcards, when not running,
in the weight room, or out at Bethany training
were usually at a meet. The first was at Bell-
fontain for "C rated racers. Ross WUson came
fourth despite tough competition. On the same day
Mark Griffin placed third in his age group at
the "D" race at Kitchener.
The next weekend, January 17th to 19th was
an unlucky one. The race was the Southern
Ontario Championships at Collingwood and Ross
Wilson and Jim Maier were the only ones entered.
Ross broke his leg during the non-stop practice
run for the downhiU, ending what promised to
be an excellent season. Jim placed 33rd.
The following two weekends Brian Windle
placed tenth at Bethany and eighth at Osier Bluffs
Ski Club at Collingwood. Maier dia -something
unusual at Alpine Ski Club at Collingwood - he
got through the course, placing fifteenth!
The last "B" and "C race was at Craig-
lieth Ski Club, Collingwood and although Brian
Lewus made it through both courses neither he,
J. Maier or B. Windle did very well. Next year
it is hoped that all competitive skiers will be able
to get a rating through the Southern Ontario
Ski Zone and participate in these races.

Cross Country
The cross country season got started after
everybody was equiped with the ski test at Devil's
Elbow; most members ofthe team participated and
won their badges in various divisions. February
8th and 9th was the Udora Invitational meet.
Mark Griffin won the senior boys and William
Molson placed third in the juniors. The juniors
of our team further enhanced the skiing reputation
of the School by capturing last place in the relay.
Over mid-term three representatives were at
the Estonian Ski Club Championships. Unfort-
unately the strain of freedom was a bit hard
on our boys: one never made the race, another
placed insignificantly, and Benny Gregg demol-
ished a pair of borrowed skis. The meet was a
definite success.
At Midland, John Ringereide did very well
against stiff competition and conditions to place
sixth; in the Juniors, William Molson and Duncan
McCallum placed first and second.
The weekend of March 1st was the grand finale
to the season. A team of tourers, let by Mr.
Maclnnes, placed fifth in a field of sixty-three
teams in the Montreal Ottawa Marathon Ski Tour.
In the Bethany Club Championships, Mark
Griffin placed first by an astounding time of nine
minutes faster than John Ringereiede, who placed
second; the juniors didwell, capturing all ranking
places except first.
On the next day, there were the Southern On-
ario Championships north of Toronto. The bus
driver, a Mr. Pratt, outguessed the pros at the
waxing game; consequently, Mark Griffin got
second in an extremely difficult competition;
in the Juniors, Willie Molson came first with a
record time, Jim Macdonald came an unac-
knowledged second, and Finga Brown and David
Kent tied for third. Our local Norwegian rep-
resentative downed four hundred and thirty seven
brew to place an unchallenged first in the Maxwell
House open.
As well as managing a very distinguished re-
cord for such a young team, many new-comers
to thesport were given excellenttrainingby racing;
the future record will improve as the investment
matures.
The Three Way Team
This season saw the formation of a three-way
ski team. It was this team of seven that left one
Februarj' Friday afternoon forthe Eastern Town-
ships for a five school meet at Owl's Head Mount-
ain. Brian Windle held up the team in Giant
Slalom and David Kent in the Slalom. Mark
Griffin, showing his terrific style, won the cross-
coutnn,- and Ian Birchall, taking the place ofthe
wounded Brian Windle did exceptionally well,
as did David Stewart. In spite of the excellent
competition T.C.S. placed second to Stanstead
losing by a mere 20 points out of a total of 1200.
The only other team skiing was a Giant Slalom
at Georgian Peaks, Collingwood. The second team
placed third and on the first team Maier and
Birchall were disqualified.

This year's success for the ski team as a
whole would not have been possible without
the coach, Mr. Pratt (he's not really the bus driver
ha ha). He made the trips possible, eachof which
had the familiar words "Don't touch the radio"
and "Be quiet, Kent". Our sincere thanks to
Mr. Pratt for his invaluable effort, time, advice,
and the magic bus.

Oxford Cup
The 72nd running of the Oxford Cup Cross
Country race was made through extremely bad
ciinditions; it was won by Ian Mcdland who
thus dethroned Tim Denton from his two year
ownership of the cup. A tragedy occured, in
that Jim Seagram, after building up a colossal
lead towards a record time, collapsed within view
of the finish line. For the first time in the history
of the race there was an unlimited number of
runners. Fortj- runners from four houses com-
peted. Brent House, again, won the cup by an
easy margin with Bickle as a runner up. The win-
ning time, areflectionoftheconditions, was 27:05.

Editor's Corner
This term has been a fairly good one for most
of us. The members of the hockey team have
a right to be proud, because of an extremely
good season, losing only to Ridley in the season's
last game.
Some personalities have changed this term.
Some boys who have become extremely popular,
are, I m sure, going to be here for years to come.
Others, however, have become more subdued
because of the unkindness of some people. 1
think we should all take a good look at ourselves,
and try to be a little more thoughtful.
This term has been the hardeston the members
of grade nine. I'm going to be glad to be able
to sit back and rest, during the holidays.
The coming term looks promising, and we
have a lot of good new cricketers.

Christmas Play
The theme of this year's Christmas Play was
"Aladdin and his Turned-On Lamp". Many good
actors appeared in this play; John Clouston
played the villain; Reid Willis was Aladdin;
Stephen Binet played Widow Twankey; Clive
Maynard was the Genie; Malcolm Schell and Ken
Hughes played the Chinese stage managers.
Many other good actors played the guards, the
emperor, empress and princess. It was a brilliantly
costumed show and here Mrs. Moore deserves
special thanks.
The play opened with a tune from the seven boy
band directed by Mr. Prower. The singing min-
strels trained by Mr. Dennys and led by Mr.
Attridge and John Armstrong, appeared through-
out the play. I think that the whole cast was
proud to be members of this play which went on
flawlessly. Many thanks to Mr. Lewis for the
for the props and to Mr. Morris and Mr. Perry
for production.

The Audio-Visual "5"
Boulden House today would not be the same
without the AUDiaVISUAL "5". These five
modern machines take the chore out of everyday
work. Upstairs in the French Department, a tape
recorder and portable French Lab of the latest
model are used to teach us French moreefficiently.
The new library has a stereo record player that
is great for listening to English plays like Macbeth
or for enjoying music. WhUe reading a book,
you can listen to music through the dual stereo
speakers or privately, through earphones.
Throughout the classrooms the two overhead
projectors are frequently used to aid the lazy
masters who are tired of writing oversized letters
on the blackboards. They are also useful to
students that have projects to present to the class.
Downstairs in the Recreation Room, interesting
movies are often shown to occupy one's spare
time. This projector and screen are also useful
for English, History, and Geography movies.
The last machine is the filmstrip projector. It
has advantages over the movie projector because
it is hard to study one part of the movie while
the rest of the movie continues.
What would we do without all of this valuable
equipment?

Winter Wonderings
The ground, so hard to root to.
Yet, a decade ago, strong
and tall, there was
a tree.
It started from seed,
Pushed and shoved and fought for life
Among others.
Then down from the heavens
Nature's wrath streaks,
splitting apart the air
with a tremendous crack.
A tremor,
a crash, and a mangling of branches.
Smoke rises.
Death.
But —
Something remains which will gorw;
one life, a seed, the only thing,
which now falls and struggles.
It digs, and roots,
and wins.
Eric Pattison
Nell
He got the bridle and saddle and
Headed
Towards the stable.
And there she was,
NeU,
Gray old Nell.
He saddled her emd
As he put on her bridle he noticed
Her worn, grciss-stained teeth.
He mounted and
Saw
Her exhausted legs.
He looked.
Thought,
Sighed,
And rode.
For now was the sorrowful moment —
Nell was being retired.
Stephen Baker
Good are the things we cannot buy.
Like love and kindness, or being shy.
A baby's crj', a mother's sigh.
And even nature's bright blue sky.
Good are the things we cannot buy.
Love, affection, and a time to sigh.
An endless care for a puppy or cat.
Along with the occasional little pat.
A hope for someone who is not well.
The beautiful sound of a church bell.
These are the things we cannot buy,
Love, affection, and the way we cry.

Over a parched field, a hawk (lies, looking
for food, but finding nothing alive in that barren
waste, it (lies on through the dustj- sky. A bony,
dirt-covered peasant sees the bird, and looks to
the sky, silently cursing its cloudless expanse.
There is war nearby. Two lost children sit
on a pile of debris that was once their home.
They are crj'ing because of the acrid smoke and
the "appalling reek of death. They cry because
the>- are alone, their parents are dead in the
rubble beneath them. They cry because they can-
not understand this. It is all beyond the mind of
a child.
By the roadside a two-year-old sobs the bitter
tears of despair and pain. He is alone; he feels
a loneliness much deeper than we will ever feel.
In sheltered North America, we count our
blessings. In other countries, they count their
dead.

The Lucky One
I am a Korean, a proud one.
One who bears the grotesque feeling of
Having only one leg.
I am the one not killed in the last attack
The only one.
As I think back,
Suddenly a rattling sound
And I was on the earth;
My leg wEis a bloody mess with
White bone showing.
I am one who is still able to
Hobble out to see the graves of those
Less fortunate thaii I.
But this \s worse than death.
A Powerless Pebble?
Once again those thought-provoking reflec-
tions pierced and pounded in the shadows of my
memory; those hungry facesof poverty, neglect,
and loneliness seemed drained with toil and heart-
break. People's faces were expressionless from
waiting so long for what they so desperately
needed.
Here I sit in warmth, with education provided,
and food at my fingertips, lecturing about the
anguish of the poor. I, like many others, will
outline why you should help the poverty-stricken,
and what you should do about improving their
condition. But wUl you, such as I did, give up all
effort to the feeble excuse, "The spirit is wUling,
but the flesh is weak."? And like me, alike in your
last resource of escape when presented with the
task which faces you, say:
"I am only a pebble upon the beach, a pebble
which has no significance, no power, a pebble
which is bound down. Anyway, even if I did
attempt to do something about the conditions, it
would be a fruitless effort What can honestly
be expected of me?"
Or would you be one of the few to storm the
beach and save man from self-destruction?

The Defenceless Nation
They work in the dry, sun-baiked fields,
Their faces expressionless.
The>' stroke their hoes with a never-pausing rhythm.
All hope.
All happiness,
all ambition,
gone.
When hit by wars
they are broken, defenceless;
So they offer no resistance to their eager conquerors.

Winner: The Spring Puff Award for Poetry
The Four
Onward gallop the four dark-shrouded horsemen:
Conquest, Famine, War and Death;
And as they approach the whole earth trembles,
Then gathers courage
And attempts to hold back the unstoppable.
To prevent the plummetting into the all-feared Darkness.
But
Man's nature ever guides him into the Light,
For good or ill,
And gives him strength;
Gives him might with which to force the feared to retreat.
Until the Four one more attempt
To thwart God's will unsuccessfully, and
To lead all,
mEinkind and beast,
Beyond the River Styx.

The Enveloping Heat
The black undisturbed silence was now pierced
by a vast explosion, and a feminine shriek of
despair and fright. The once cold, dark night was
now filled with heat and light from the glowing
embers and bright yellow flames stretching out
the front windows.
The shriek of despair was followed by a buz-
zang fire alarm and the sickening whining cry
from a young helpless baby caught amongst
the hungry, scorching flames. One cry was
followed by another until a series of infantile
heartbreaking screams filled the air. In the back-
ground the squealing screech of a fire engine
reached the ear and within a minute was attack-
ing the bright destructive flames. But it was too
late.
The cries had died out and the house was
converted into a pile of glowing embers and
mutilated bodies.

Immediately his eagle eye burned towards me. It

force had destroyed my power of determination. I
continued to look at the gazing inferno. Thoughts
then pulsated through my brain as though a
forbidding power had taken over. They vibrated,
"Get back to work!" With this, I dropped my
head down and carried on working for what
seemed an eternity.

and the organ swells in all its majestj'. As the
choir strides down the aisle, a child voices his
joy at seeing his brother there. All are seated
after the hymn, and for prayer the kneelers are
brought down, some with an abrupt crash. Two
little girls sit chattering away, while the exaspera-
ted father tries vainly to put a damper on their
enthusiasm. As the priest says the sermon, a little
voice sings out announcing that it's owner has to
use the bathroom. The second hymn is sung and
the collection plates start around. A little girl
drops her dime and goes scampering under the
pew in search of it while the father tries to make
it look as if he does not Itnow her. After the plate
has gone by, a little boy shows his mother the
dime he failed to contribute. While the mother is
busy scolding the child, and another conversation
is going on elsewhere, the organ drones bravely

The Tombstone
The scarlet seatbelt sign flashed as the pilot
prepared the passengers for an unscheduled land-
ing. A rumour originated from a plump, bald
man on the verge of tears, that an engine was
failing. After hearing this, a little fair-haired boy
asked his mother if they were going to get home
all right Shesobbed. The passengers were scream-
ing now as the stewardess appeared. The plane
banked from side to side like a small row-boat
caught in a storm; the oxygen masks popped out
in front of the horrified travellers. The stewardess
came out looking terrified and advised them as to
what position to sit in, should they run into
difTicultj'. Just a split-second after she finished her
pleading word, the plane jerked doward into an
uncontrollable dive. Many blacked-outor suffered
nervous attacks, but they did not suffer long
because seconds later the plane exploded into a
million particles. Not a body was in sight but a
fier>' blaze had settled in a grove of maples as
a remembrance of that tragic disaster.

Clouds
All that could be seen in the sky was the
remains of a broken vapor trail, the hazy vision
of the sun shining and a large, villainous grey
cloud. The massive area of fluff was being blown
into the bright scope of the sun. The cloud seemed
to be trying to stop thesun from giving its warmth
to everything that lived. Everyone on earth saw
what was coming about, they all quickly looked
at the now beautiful surroundings. Suddenly a
black shadow crept over all, leaving a cold dark-
ness. The simmering grass and the tree tops had
stopped shining and began to turn into a dark,
ugly mess. When the light came upon the earth
again nothing showed any sigsn of life for all
that moved was the crusty leaves being blown by
the harsh wind. Death had crept upon the living.

Boulden House Hockey
Coach's Report
At the outset of the season, with only two boys returning
from last year's squad, the potential of the team was uncertain.
However, after four straight victories on home ice, the team was
well on its way to a successful season. With the exception of the
Ridley game, the only loss of the season, the team never failed
to score less than five goals a game. Despite a tendency to allow
the other team to score first, the team never let up until the final
whistle in any of the games.
The two co-captadns, Lunder\'ille and Clouston, with Stutz,
Fraas and Memor>', deser\-e a great deal of credit for the spirit
and drive of the team. Their performance on the ice was an
inspiration to the rest of the team. However, hockey is a team
sport which means that every player must exhibit team spirit
and possess a desire to do his best in order to have a successful
season.
It was my good furtune to be the coach and I think the boys
for their efforts.

T.C.S. vs U.C.C. won 6-2
This w£is a very tense game but our Boulden House hockey
team won its first game. Memory aided the score with two goals
and captains Clouston and LundervUle scored one each, along
with Fraas and Higginbotham. We were in the lead oil the
time, but U.C.C. scored two goals on our gocdie, Schell. Schell
played a good game in net, not to mention the superb play of
the defensemen.
T.C.S. vs Lakefield
won 7-3
We came back to win another game for our second win in a
row. This game was an easy victory, even though Lakefield
scored three goeds. Clouston and Lunderville scored three goals
each. Gordon got one goal. Altogether it was an exciting game.
Page I 1 2
T.C.S. vs U.C.C.
won 6-4
This was the closest of all our games. Through most of the
game we were tied with U.C.C. Then we broke the tie at 2-2.
The score was 4-2 before they scored again. Then we scored
again to make it 5-3. We rejieated this procvss to make the final
score 6-4. Clouston and Lunderville scored two each while
Vaughan and Memory each scored one goal.
T.C.S. vs St. George's
won 8-6
This team was the strongest of all the ones we had played so
far. Spence played a good game in goal, stopping many shots.
They were wonce tied with us, 2-2 at the end of the first period.
Then we came back in second and third periods to score six
more goals, while St. George's scored four more. The most
goals came from Clouston who scored four goals. Lunderville
got two goals, while Garvin and Memory got one each. This
was a very weU-played game.
T.C.S. VSS.A.C.
tied 5-5
On Saturday February 22nd T.C.S. played
their first away game against S.A.C. Schell got
to rather a shaky start and before three minutes
had passed, it was 3-0 for them. T.C.S. recovered
quickly, however, and made it 3-2. The period
ended 4-2. One goal a piece was scored in the
second period and it ended 5-3. Spence then went
in goal and T.C.S. scored two quick goals and
that is the way the period ended.
Highlights of the game were three goeds by
Lunderville, one by Memory, and one by Fraas.
Spence also played a good game.
T.C.S. vs Ridley
lost 8-3
The game started off slowly but eventually
Ridley scored. Lunderville quickly retaliated by
scoring one for T.C.S. From the middle of the
second period to the middle of the third period
we had 8 goals scored against us while only
scoring two ourselves. The game tightened and
ended 8-3 for Ridley. Lunderville, Memory and
Fraas each scored a goal.
This game was played between the two houses.
Orchard and Rigby. In the first period the score
was finally 1-0 for Orchard. In the second period
both teams let go and played a very good
game. The score at the end of the period was
2-1 for Orchard. Then in the third period Rigby
lost their footing and Orchard pulled ahead with
a final score of 8-1. Dewart was in goal for
Orchard and played a good game, even though
he was from a snipe team. Schell, the Rigby
goal tender, played a good game, but let in some
shots that were almost impossible to stop. All
together, both teams played a fair game.

the Maple Leafs tieing. The Black Hawks were
only one point behind the rest.
The points were as follows:
Red Wings: 10; Bruins: 12; Canadiens: 12;
Maple Leafs: 12; Black Hawks: 11.
TEAMS:
Bruins: Armstrong (Capt.), Bethell, Irwin, Bal-
loch, Martin, Pilcher, McEwen, Bishop, Geo.
Lawson, Smith, Feldhaus, Home, White (goal).
Red Wings: B. Hughes (Capt.), Scott, Skinner,
R., Begley, Campbell R., Heimbecker, Morgan,
Currelly, Mooney, Munn, Petty, Jones (goal).
Black Hawks: Barnett (Capt.), Dewart, McLau-
ghlan. Baker, Bishop, Gord., Skinner J., Beding-
ton, Cameron, Wynne, Wells, Honey, Harmer
(goal).
Canadiens: Hughes K. (Capt.), Jacobsen, Kirk-

Learning . . . Earning . . . Yearning . . .
Like Napoleon's soldier, who carried a marshal's baton in his knapsack,
the young man setting out upon a career today carries with him his own
chances of ultimate success. Learning power can fit him for the respon-
sibility which accompanies earning power. Equally important, however,
is that drive from within — yearning power — toward personal progress.
Stelco's progress has always been built by the progress of individuals,
and there will always be places among the people of Stelco for young
men, and women, whose ambitions are based firmly on learning, earning
and yearning.

STYLES TO PLEASE THE YOUNG MAN
16 Walton Street Port Hope
123
It seems that young Icarus was in prison
(known today as restricted freedom, In-
justice and false values). It also seems
that he longed to escape, to become part
ofthat swinging world outside: he wanted
to fly. So his kindly (but square) father
showed him how to make wings out of
feathers and wax, and how to flap his
arms convincingly, Icarus was turned on.
When Drop-Out-Of-Prison-Day arrived,
Icarus' dad warned him about flying too
close to or Sol and the disaster lurkiny
therein. Icarus promised to keep his cool,
and took off.
Was it ever great up there! Going around
bumping into strange birds; dipping and
soaring whenever he wanted; nobody
telling him what to do; digging Ihat grubby
old prison far, far below . . . Icarus felt
positively free! Free enough to try for the
sun, in fact. He felt he was old enough,
mature enough and strong enough to fly
higher than anyone else ever had.
So up he went, up into the hot sun.
Disaster lurked therein. The wax on his
arms started to melt, and, one by one,
the feathers dropped out. And soon after,
sodidlcarus.-.rightoutof sight. Flapping
all the way down.
Moral: when you think it's time to assert
your mdependence, just make sure that
your judgement
is developed well
enough to with-
stand a lot of heat
Make good and
sure. It's the only
way to fly.

And to meet the challenge of to-
morrow, TCS now offers your son the
tools of tomorrow. In its fine complex of
new buildings, he'll find superbly equip-
ped new laboratories and classrooms
with the latest audio-visual aids. Here,

This issue of the Record is dedicated to
Mr. Edmund Cohu.
Page 7
In this, the last issue of the "Record" for this school year, we pay tribute to
a man who is now leaving us after 42 years of unequalled devotion to T.C.S.
Boys and staff will remember "Billie", "Uncle Eddie" or "Casper" as a man of
music and unceasingly good humour. The man, ofcourse, is Mr. Edmund Cohu,
who first came to T.C.S. in 1927.
He heard of T.C.S. while working as a hired hand on a farm just east of
Port Hope. He was organist of a small country' church but soon moved to Port
Hope to fill the vacancy at SL John's. The organist at T.C.S. at this time was
Mr. Sly £md when he became ill, Mr. Cohu always filled in for him. It was not
long after, though, that Mr. Cohu was here to stay — this time for 42 years.
Mr. Cohu has set high standards of achievement that will be hard to surpass in
the future.
Mr. Dale, Assistant Head Master at T.C.S. had this to say, "Few people,
perhaps, realize the enormous contribution which Mr. Cohu has made to T.C.S.
in the past 42 years. The Senior School will remember him most as the Chapel's
organist and choirmaster. As the latter, he showed himself to be a skillful, con-
sciencious and devoted teacher with just the right blend of discipline and humour.
As one of his host of friends, I wish him many happy days."
So to you. Mr. Cohu, who have given so much to all of us. we offer our
sincere thanks. You have captured our hearts and respect through generations of
T.C.S. boys and weall wish you happiness and hope that you will return to T.C.S.
frequently for we will sorely miss you.
Thank you and good bye, Mr. Cohu!

THE HEAD PREFECT'S ADDRESS
Speech Day - 1969
Mr. Chairman, Mr. Scott, Members of the
Governing Body, Ladies and gentlemen, Fellow
Students:
As Anthony said to Cleopatra as he lifted the
flap of her tent, "I didn't come here to make a
speech."
I came to T. C.S. six years ago to get the
best education this country has to offer. In these
six years, the face of the School has changed
mEiny times over. We have passed our Centen-
nial with a flourish, we have been presented with
the beautiful new buildings we see around us
today, and we have grown from a school of
only two hundred £md eighty to one of almost
three hundred and fifty. But perhaps the most
important changes that should have taken place
at T.C.S. are only just beginning to take shape.
These are the changes in outlook.
Over one hundred years ago, Willicun Arthur
Johnston started something he wouldn't believe
today. In this last year, we as students, and
particularly those of us in the Sixth Form have,
like students throughout the world, struggled for
a better student-staff relationship, and we have
had some success. Fortunately for all of us, the
Headmaster, stciff of the school, and Governors,
are devoted men who give their time EUid energy
to the well-being of T.C.S. We as students, are
inexperienced and often rash, and want change
as fast as we can get it. But what we do not
realize now, and what I am sureweof the leaving
class will soon realize, is that even though all
our criticisms seem to be filed and forgotten, the
men who run this school will not forget our
suggestions, but rather will blend them into their
own ideas of how T.C.S. should be run. Sooner
or later, our ideas will find their ways into the
life at T.C.S. if they are in fact valid.
Unfortunately, patience is a virtue that few of
us possess, especially those of us in the leaving
class, and if we want to succeed after we leave
the school, we will have to learn this art which
has been presented to us by the staff this year.
Any school in which the Headmaster and his
staff will take heed of, and be able to deal with
so much student unrest is truly remarkable. We
are grateful to them as we leave T.C.S.
The School and the boys of it, who are the
School, have changed greatly in the past five
years. The spirit of the school is changing from
that of a conservative institution to one of a
liberal college, and as this change progresses,
the students will slowly begin to realize that they
have not been forgotten in the hum-drum of
daily activity.
Perhaps this has been a bad year, as far as
mental attitudes are concerned, and this can be
attributed to many things, including the large
influx of New Boys, which is the largest it has
ever been. However, given a few years, the
School will undoubtedly establish a new equili-
brium, and as I look to the future, I can see
changes and improvements that will make T.C.S.,
which is now a great school, into the greatest
school. Although it will be the boys of the School
who determine its fate, it is the Masters who are
ultimately responsible, and in them we can trust
implicitly.
We of the leaving class do not all realize it
now, and many of us will not realize it for many
years to come, but T.C.S. is a great school, and
looking ahead to that time when we are all in
accord, I say we are thankful for the benefits
that T.C.S. has given to us.
— Jonathan Dreyer
Editorial
One of the first things you notice when you
have left T.C.S. for the last time as a student is
a rapid change in perspective; the hassles and
discomforts that seemed so important at the time
can be dismissed with a smile or a shrug. Other
things, however, unnoticed during school days,
assume a new importance. The friends that you
have made, the little things that you have learned
about living with other people — these are things
that last
Too often at T.C.S. we let ourselves be gover-
ned in our behaviour towards other people by
outward symbols like position and rank in the
School. One develops a way of looking at mas-
ters, at Privileges, at fellow students, accordingto
category. Too often a Privilege is regarded only
as a Privilege, or a New Boy only as a New Boy,
regardless of individual personedities. This is not
really surprising. We live in a "label-conscious"
society, where a man can be sized up and disposed
of by a quick glance at his clothes or the colour
of his skin.
In a way, T.C.S. lends itself to this kind of
rank-consciousness because it is so highly struc-
tured. However, if you keep in mind the fact that
positions among boys are always changing, ad-
ways temporary, then it is perhaps easier to see
beyond them.
This is not to say that "positions" should not
command some respect for their own sakes; there
are times when a "position" must be obeyed,
regardless ofthe personalities involved; the School
could not be run if its officers were not obeyed.
But there is a lot more to life at school ^an
commanding and obeying. T.C.S. is a small,
closely-knit community of its own. Boys have to
understand and help each other to make life in
that community bearable. Boys have to remem-
ber that regardless of the four quarters that X
gave Y yesterday, or regardless of the fact that
Z was throwing around peas at the dinner table,
the School is basically a community of friends,
and to lose sight of that, to hide behind "position"
to judge another person by what he is supposed
to represent rather than by what he really is, is
to deny that person's individuality, to deny that
he has a character of his own.
If we close the door to certain people and
never reaUy try to know them, if we let ourselves
be guided by general bitterness rather than indi-
vidual cases, if we let "the system" guide us,
instead of our own judgment, itisourselveswhom
we cheat in the long run, because the human
experiences last, and the positions don't

Soul On Ice
A man rapes woman, white woman and tells
why. Man desires black women, sexually, unin-
hibitedly, and tells why. A man pushes marijuana
in shopping bags. A man believes in violence and
the death of the white race — no reconciliation.
A man is a dope addict, killer, rapist, criminal.
This man is the spiritual leader of black America.
He is Eldridge Cleaver.
Our narrow, smug white minds say that he is
a condemned man, and is worth no more con-
sideration. The battered, scarred, burning black
mind provides the spark for his strength, his
drive, his savage expressionism. Muhaunmed,
then Malcolm X, now Eldridge Cleaver. The
white man's laws no longer matter, only the
amount of resistance against those laws matters
— to a black. Those laws are repressive, fascist,
transparent; enforced by fascist, transparent
people.
Eldridge Cleaver is a resistor, and he narrates
why and how in his book. Only after you ex-
perience his thoughts Eiflame in this book, will
you even come close to knowing why he is a
leader. Read it — and learn about the fathers of
the men that may some day eliminate vis — the
white race.
— John Mackay
From the standpoint of social satire, and biting
commentary, the movie "If ..." is a complete
failure. Gleefully greeted as a great take-ofl' on
boarding schools, it is, in fact, nothing of the
sort. The constant flights into fantasy and the
semi-truths exaggerated out of all realisticperspec-
tive give the film a dream-like quality.
TTiis could not be a mistake. No director who
was attempting satire would risk reducing his
observations to farcical levels by having the
Headmaster calmly pull the School Chaplain out
of his desk drawer; by showing the hero, two
minutes after meeting the lovely lunch-counter
girl, Christine Noonan, wrestling nude on the
floor of the restaurant with her.
The film, then, is surely a trip inside the mind
of its hero, Malcolm McDowell. Where he is
dreaming and where he is merely living is not
always possible to tell; herein lies the film's chief
defect. However, it is clear that most of the action
is a part of the boy's imagination; the interesting
technique of switching from colour to various
shades of brown, purple or grey reinforces the
idea of a dream.
Some of the fun in the film is put in to empha-
size the wild imagination of the mind being
studied. The farcical cadet scene where McDowell
and his two side-kicks decide to use real
bullets, the vague wanderings of the House-
master's bovine wife, nude through the empty
corridors of the School, the final Chapel scene
where a blimp-like General, the guest-speaker,
continues to pontificate as smoke rises through the
floor, smothering all the guests — these are the
products of a richly humourous mind.
So we are left with the question — what does
it all mean? In this case the question is futile and
redundant The movie is a wild fim-trip through
the twisted corridors of a brilliant mind, to be
enjoyed for its own sake and not made for
pompous, windy explanations and parallels.

THE ELECTRIC ROPE BLUES BAND
Poge I 3
JACQUES BREL IS ALIME
ID VfELL /AND LI\IING lil PARIS
The theatre has always been the testing ground
for innovation and experiments. In 1967, yet
another experiment was tried under the influence
and genius of two men . . . Mort Schuman and
Eric Blau. Both these men were vaguely famUiar
with the works of a well-known French composer-
singer, Jacques Brel. Their idea was to bring the
works of Jacques Brel to a theatrical setting. This
idea was carried out in New York that SEime year,
with four very well-known singers from the thea-
trical and operatic fields.
The two gentlemen in the play, BUI Copeland
and Bob Jeffrey, usually work together during
their songs and they offer for the most part, the
comic elements of theplay. The outstanding songs
that these gentlemen do are "The Statue", "The
Bulls". "Funeral Tango" and" The Middle Class".
The songs that they sing are the satirical ones
that have more social comment than the songs
handled by the two women, and these are very
effectively put across, not only musically but by
means of dramatic gestures and routines as well.
The fourth actress is Arlene Meadows, who,
despite a very strong voice, does not come over
as colourfuUy, as strong or as emotionally as the
other three. Perhaps this is because she doesn't
have as much opportunity to impress the audience
with numbers of her songs and the songs them-
selves. However, her highlight comes in a song
called "The Old Folks" which throws more atten-
tion up>on Brel's beautiful poetry than on her
singing.
The singers are backed up by a four-piece
studio band which has piano, drums, guitar and
electric bass. They are loud, they are good, and
they are no doubt an important reason why most
of Oie audience is usually under twenty.
The same version of that New York presenta-
tion has been presented at the Playhouse Theatre
in Toronto for quite a number of months. TTie
four actor-singers are all Canadians, and all
have a background in the theatre and opera.
STAN PORTER
JUDY LANDER
BOB JEFFREV
BILL COPELANC
ARLENE MEADOWS
Of the four actors, best treatment is given by
Judy Lander, the yoimgest of the company. Her
surprisingly emotional voice makes the best songs
of the performance come alive and assume an
unmistakeable meaning. These songs are "My
Death", "Sons of", "Marieke" and "Carousel".
"Carousel" is undeniably the highlight of the
show, but "My Death" is the song that leaves the
most vivid impression. She sings to make time
stand still and succeeds in the last verse, which
climbs up the decibel scale to both an emotional
and a musical climax.
"Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in
Paris" is a very successful attempt to put the
traditional French chanson into a tastefully
modern idiom in a theatrical setting. The effect
is impressive and lasting, and is hopefully the
beginning of a new form of nightlife entertainment.

The Impressions of
Two Exchange Students
To compare T. C.S. with Glenalmond, or
indeed with any British independent school
is difficult; the differences that have struck us
most, though, are those in the students them-
selves, the school systems and the general en-
vironment. The students differ in that they are
much more extroverted and outwardly friendly.
The North American society- is far faster and
a great deal more demanding than the British.
This affects the students in that they are very
involved in present day problems. Also the
standard of living is far higher here, and the
boys are used to having more than those
in Britain. As a result, complaints about the
food, the rooms, and the discipline at T. C.S.
are frequent. Yet T.C.S. boys are much more
fortunate than their counterparts in Britain.
For most British independent schools are
highly competitive and must have the lowest
possible budgets.
However, due to a different system, the
academic standard is much higher in British
schools: although the sixth form is two years
younger than its equivalent here, the boys
are more mature, and have reached a higher
standard. Yet many of the syllabuses at T.C.S.
are more interesting and the methods of teach-
ing more modern, as they are not plagued by
the straight-jacket of outdated external exams.
I'he diicipluic at T.C.S. is far les,^ rigid
than at Glenalmond. Perhaps a mixture of
both systems would be ideal, although theboys
at Glenalmond are used to taking more dis-
cipline without complaint, and are more willing
to enforce it.
John has enjoyed the sports very much,
and Duncan has enjoyed the lack of them.
We have both enjoyed our stay at T.C.S.
immensely. Everybody — boys, masters, and
their families have been extremely kind and
hospitable to us, and have made us feel very
much at home. To them we would like to extend
our grateful thanks for what has been a most
enjoyable and invaluable experience, which we
will never forget. We hope there will be many
more such exchanges in the future - we only
regret that we cannot repeat it ourselves. How-
ever we hope that we will return to Canada
as soon as possible.
— D.A Y. Menzies

CANADA . . . WHERE?
Probably thefirst and mostevident observation
that one can make about Canadians is thiat they
are confused. Pardon the cliche, but like every
youth today — and Canada is still very much
the raw and awkward youth — C'anada is facing
an "identity crisis." New friends and relatives
usurping the power of the old; Canada looks to
its roots and becomes only more confused.
The noble tradition of Britain, once so awe-
some, proud and rich — more like a father
stripped of his virility, living modestly on the
pension of past achievements, quickly running
out of even that, the pride too many times broken
— viewed by its child with pitying contempt and
a whiff of grateful nostalgia.
The "pioneer spirit" — not tall, lean cowboys,
but huddling, desperate-eyed Ukranians in sheep-
skin coats, given dignity by the purity of their
need, and the determination with which they
attacked it — they are humbled now by a degree
of success; the mud hut built with the farmer's
own sweat and agony, a symbol of his fierce
pride, gives way to a "sorta Colonial style"
second mortgage with an automatic dishwasher
and an "almost top o' the line" model General
Motors product.
An easy pace in B.C., skiing, swimming, a
brown, tanned athletic people who are open and
trusting, with none of the varnished brittleness of
Toronto. They are proudly B.C., but their pride
is a little defensive because they resent the
dominance of the "East"; a little too apologetic —
"Vancouver isn't really as dull as itseems tonight.
Usually . . .!"
Toronto, a cruel and ugly city, where the lines
are drawn sharply and you've got to keen moving
and desperate secretaries from Nova Scotia sit
alone, night upon night, in shiny littlo cubicles,
piled high on top of one another in massive
blocks of hospital white — a pompous city, which
would like to have "arrived" and hasn't quiteyet,
so is always trying to prove its point. But stUl,
a city bustling, teeming with life, the business
centre of Canada — grunting sweaty "wops"
work under the Polish foreman, paid by the
absent Jew owner, who in turn must pay homage
to the oaken doors of the Wasp banker. Every
day something going up, buUdings of steel,
openings, music festivals — always something
new.
Then there is silent French Canada which rum-
bles now. It scares the plump liberals who cancel
their reservations to go and practice their high-
school French — maybe Muskoka's safer —
arguing in pursed-lipped smugness. Goddam
them, who won the war, anyway?" The big stolid
country habitant still shakes yourhand when you
buy his syrup, but when his son comes home
from the University of Montreal — when father
and son talk about the new found pride, does
not the silent habitant present a different face to
match the flushed, shiny-eyed eagerness of the
youth he beholds in awe.
Further east it is dirty and poor, and they
know what "regional disparity" means and to
them it is more than a passing phrase, — it is a
way of life, and they are bitter — Ontario enjoys
the highest standard of living, per capita, in the
world. Canada ranks about fifth. There is a
discrepancy, and though the winners may forget,
the losers don't.
And hanging over us all, the only thing that
unites us — envy, adulation and fear of the U.S.;
Western Canadians know that down in the state
of Washington, the fads and ideas that will soon
be seeping northward are already being hatched.
Torontonians can expect that if a play is success-
ful on Broadway, a second rate version of it will
soon be hitting Toronto, and that when they turn
on their television they can see the worst of
"Americana" filtering right into theirlivingroom.
Canadians know that they are owned and con-
trolled by a foreign nation, but they haven't the
guts to do anything about it. So like the man
who runs from society because he can't compete
and then proceeds to label society "voilgar" and
"meaningless", Canadians thank their stars that
they're not American, but they never know quite
why, so another anti-American tirade is brought
on.
Yet maybe, with all our regional and cultural
differences and our apparent domination by the
U.S., there is something which can be described
only by the word "Canadian", something which is
distinctively and uniquely ours, and which sets
us apart from others. Perhaps fairness, cool-
headedness, a touch ofskepticism, stronger adher-
ence to basic values, a desire for quality, as
opposed to glitter — perhaps these are a key to the
elusive Canadian personality. And just maybe, if
we can find these qualities and somehow sort
them out, perhaps we can give future Canadians
something more substantial to hang on to. We
have virtually no past to rely on, but maybe, by
devoting ourselves to thevisionof"Canadianism"
we can mould a future that will mean something.
Surely this is the chsdlenge . . .

Black and White Revolt United
The blacks of America are fighting for their
freedom. They are fighting for the freedom of
education, good housing, and a placeas a person
in America. The blacks are no longer fighting
alone; they have a great majority of young white
Americans and Canadians on their side.
The fight for black freedom has been goingon
for years, but only recently have the blacks been
aided by white youngsters. The white youth has
now turned to the black people as a means of
protest against the white middle class of America.
The white youngsters are saying "Look, there is
no difference between black and white — the only
difi'erence that exists is the bigoted, uneducated,
white minds of America. The only difference that
exists is the skin colouring and that is certainly
not a strong basis to judge amanon." The youth
of America has finally seen the light and now
they are tn,'ing to show the rest of America the
same thing — that they now understand. The
white youth of America is fighting with the black
for the equal rights that have been denied a race
of people simply because their skin isdarkerthan
white.
Youth has found it hard to convince the blacks
of their sinceritj'. Only recently have many of the
black leaders, such as Eldridge Cleaver, acknow-
ledged that the whites are there, and that they
really do want to help. Slowly, the blacks are
accepting them into the fight. Recently in campus
revolts at Cornell, when the black students seized
Wllard State Hall, white S.D.S. members immedi-
ately came to their aid. They set up picket lines
and demonstrated in favour of the black seige.
On a more peaceful front, in a recent survey of
white high schools the question was asked whether
they would like to see black students admitted to
their high school. Fifty-six per cent voted yes,
eighteen per cent voted no, and twenty-six per
cent were not sure. From the revolutionary to the
regular high school student, most were in favour
of the black freedom cause. This response by the
white youth has helped them to come to the
blacks and say "Look, this is what some of
us have done, now we want to do more." The
blacks have always been unsure of a white who
asks whether he can help. They have had so much
dirt thrown in their faces by the white men that
they don't trust anyone who is white. Gradually,
they are changing their opinion. Another example
of white youth protest is being done by a white
rock group called The Young Rascals who refuse
to appear on stage unless the performance is
integrated. Slowly many black leaders are recon-
sidering their views about white youth.
It's very hard for a white American to help
the black revolt. Eldridge Cleaver has said that
the way for the white youth to help is to spread
the word to fellow students and older people that
the black is only looking for the rights they are
entitled to, and that a man should be judged on
the merit of his inside personality not on the
colour of his skin.
The white youth is trying to open the eyes of
America. There have been many solutions pro-
posed for the union of the races. Education of all
white and black people is the first solution. This
would be the first step toward the solution that
Eldridge Cleaver proposes in his book "Soul On
Ice". "When the mmd of America (the whites) and
the body (the blacks) meet, then will the races
unite."

Don't Look Back
Change is one of the esst'iitial elements of our
modern society — without it we would stagnate.
Today large corporations are forced to change
from day to day just to keep up with the varying
demands and tasks of the public and to stay one
step ahead of their competition. Scientific advance-
ment is constantly forcing the rest of society to
adjust — if only to keep ahead of the times.
Education, politics, our social structure, industry
— everj'thing is in a state of rapid flux.
At the center of this upward spiral of change is
man. Today, if an individual fails to react and
adjust to the change, he cannot hope to be success-
ful or expect to be able to cope with the incessant
demands and problems before him. Phenomena
like the hippie movement, student power, the
French crisis, and the Negro riots are all exam-
ples of a dash between two groups; one demand-
ing more reform and change more quickly, the
other resisting such rapid or radical change.
Now I am not saying that we should change
for the sake of change; but we should get used to
the idea that as the demands and needs of our
growing societj' alter with the course of progress,
we are going to have to adjust rapidly if we are
just to maintain our present level of affluence.
Change is not always easy or painless. During
the industrial revolution many people were put
out of work and left in miserable povertj' as the
transition was made. Such is also the case today.
Those reactionaries who are unable or refuse to
adjust their ways are going to be left behind.
This is not something which is uniquesolely to
our generation. It has always existed. One need
only take a look at the history of great nations
of the past. The Kgj'ptian, the Chinese, Greek and
Roman Kmpires all started to fall apart from the
moment that they could no longer stay abreastof
the times and adequately cope with the changing
demands and needs of their environment. So far
no empire of civilization has been able to main-
tain its standard of supremacy and greatness
indefinitely. The fact that no two great empires
have been alike is in itself proof of constant need
to adopt a changing environment. Today, the
evidence of our growing need for change lies all
around us. Tlie almost farcical chaos of the last
Democratic con\'ention or the inefficiency of even
our own government; tlie civil rights crisis or the
clash between the new and the old moralit>', all
clearly illustrate that change is upon us, and an
integral part of the world in which we live. It
is becoming more and more apparent that unless
we start making more rapid and intelligent adjust-
ments to satisfy the incessant problems and de-
mands of our own society, itwill beup to someone
else to pick up the shattered remnants.
More than ever before, the tempo of our every-
day life and the rapid spiral of change is threaten-
ing to run away out of control unless we are
willing to adjust and adapt and take a gliding
hand in the direction of our society while we still
have the chance.

Apathy
". . . So you think I'm living in a viiid, do you?
You ask what I do believe in? Well, just let me
tell you! 1 believe in freedom — my freedom to
be what I am and not what you or anybody else
want me to be. You say I'mcommittedto nothing,
and you're right. I'm committed to nothing be-
cause any committment would infringe on my
freedom. And I'm not prepared to let anything
infringe on my freedom. It's so easy to make the
kind of arbitrarj- decision you think I should
make It's so easyto make a choice no matter how
right or wrong it may be. It's so easy to escape
from the burden of freedom and make achoice —
just like that! So easy! It's so easy to commit
yourself to something that you don't know for
sure. But any choice, any such decision, implies
some loss of freedom and I don't choose to lose
any. Freedom is too valuable a thing to be
relinquished so easily!"
"Well, that's quite the freedom that you have
created for yourself But it's not really freedom at
all. Freedom is not the liberty to be free of making
choices but freedom to make a choice. You talk
about escaping from freedom, well you're just as
bad. You're using freedom to escape from making
decisions. You're trj'ing to use this so-called
freedom as an excuse for evading the responsibi-
lit>' of making decisions for yourself. You say
you shouldn't let others make decisions for you,
but this is not in order that you avoid decisions
altogether but that you might make them foryour-
self."
"So you're committed to nothing. And just
where do you expect to get in anything. If you
never make a choice, if you never make a com-
mitment, you will never do any thing. Any change,
any progression is the result of a committment.
And if you do not make one somewhere along the
line, you are living in a void and you never will
get anywhere. Thus, your freedom is purely
academic and utterly useless. You don't know
what real freedom is, because real freedom neces-
sitates committment, and you don't know what
that is. You're just using what you call freedom
as an excuse."
"— Wait a second. Let's not let ourselves get
carried away with words — your words. Give
me a chance. Loss of freedom isn't the only
drawback of making the decisions that you
suggest. You say that if I make a committment,
I have something to start from, a base upon
which to buUd, and thus I'm not living in a void.
But what can I, in my ignorance, be committed
to? What can I be sure of? What can I commit
myself to without undergoing the distinct possi-
bility of making a committment to something
unworthy of it? For by committing myself, I have
adopted a premise, something to start from. But
since I cannot be sure of anything, there is a
probability that I may choose as my premise
something that is invalid. And if this is so, all
that follows from that premise, no matter how
valid the logic, is useless except in an academic
sense. If my major premise, as it were, is invalid,
surely aJl that follows from it is similarly invalid.
Thus by committing myself to something as you
suggest, I have in fact committed myself to
nothing worth calling anything, and at the same
time I have relinquished my freedom. On the
other hand, if I commit myself to nothing as I
am doing now, then I will still have something,
my freedom will still be intact. Thus, through
committment to nothing I have something, where-
as through a committment to something I might
end up with nothing. Thus, I have doubts about
making the committments that you suggest!"
Page 20
"Talk about getting carried away with words!
You, my friend, are tjie last one who should
accuse me of that. What utter drivel you are
talking! You say that from a false premise
whatever follows is useless and I couldn't agree
more. But are you not guilty of this yourself? Is
not the premise on which your whole argumeniis
based that utter freedom is more important thaii
anything else? And is this not a premise which
Itsdf seems to have a distinct possibility of being
ih'valid? Do you really think freedom, alone, is
such a wonderful thing? I don't think freedom
should be an end. Freedom is a means. Freedom
is not the truth we should be pursuing, but a
means of approaching a truth. In your pursuit
for freedom, you have lost sight of what is more
valuable than freedom. It is a red herring that
has prevented you from seeing beyond it.
"You seem to have a fettish for an open mind.
But a mind should not be so open as never to
grasp anything. An open mind is only good if
it can grapple with something solid as it comes
along. Your premise is that your mind should be

One Day in the Life of Felipe Ruiz
The trees silently flew past him, and all he
could hear was the sound of the smooth steel and
the ball-bearinged wheels upon the street. The
sun threw its light from Felipe's left at this time
early in the morning, so that the trees on the left
side of the street had their long shadows on
Felipe's path. His brown, rough-hewn face was
halved by a squint, because the cold morning
air dried his eyes if he kept them open too long
or too wide.
Oh, but God was Felipe happy. Maria, his
ever pregnant wife was always after him for not
confessing, so he had finally gone to theirconcrete
church, hat in hand. The priest only asked for
ten Ave Marias to absolve his sins. A small price
to pay for a happy home, he thought.
And now he was on his way to his best paying
job of the whole week. He was a gardener, and
worked for a different patron every day. Today,
Tuesday, he went to Los Bakers, a gringo family.
Senora Baker he had known for a long time, since
before he was married to Maria. Senora Baker
was blond as the sun and always very honest
Still gravitj' tugged the rough cart down the
almost emptj' avenue, pulling at Felipe's earth
brown hands. By slightly tugging at one side of
the steering rope, then the other, and shifting his
huarache-clad feet from side to side, he could
aim the cart down the shadow-streaked avenue.
Finadly Felipe turned off the avenue, down a
quiet, empty, street On either side were huge
green, sun-light-speckled trees, their branches
bowing over the street Behind these, another
shade of green spread, the dusty ivy covering of
the walls and fences.
Felipe stopped and rang at a gate which was
suddenly white between two lo ng expanses of d ark-
green. Whistling and petting the dalmation
through the gate, he waited for Lanta, the cook,
to open.
When she did come he grinned good-morning
to her, and pulling his cart wagon-like, walked
up to the garage. He opened the rough brown
hemp sack on the cart, and drew from it a pair of
shiny and greasy shears, a scythe, and finally an
old pair of huraches which he put on, leaving his
good ones in the comer, and a gleaming brown
bottle of beer. Not that the Baker's would not
give him beer, but he felt that he should bring
something for his lunch which they gave him.
He ate alone in the kitchen, after the maids had
eaten. He could taste the frijoles £md steaming
tortillas already.
Grabbing a lawnmower in thecorner, he hefted
it over his shoulder and walked down to the lawn.
The sun was still shining from just between the
volcanoes way behind the trees. He began slowly
and rhythmically rocking forwards on his right,
backwards on his left forwards right backwards
left forwards right, backwards left As he walked,
droplets of dew soaked his toes and ankles. To
this moisture a covering of grass attached itself,
so that by the time that he had finished his feet
were covered in prickly grass blades.
As he worked, Felipe sang the songs he had
heard since his birth. Songs like" Cieli to Lindo"
(Beautiful Sky) and "El Rancho Grande" (The
Big Ranch); songs sung to the glory of nature,
to the laughter of life, songs sung whUe fighting,
while loving, while working; while cutting grass.
The sun rose above the trees, shining hotly
and brightly. But Felipe had instinctively beaten
it. He was now toiling away in the shade under
the trees, moving a flower here for more sun,
another back for more shade. Sometimes the
silvery track left by a snaU would catch his eye;
and searching under a leaf or rock, he would find
it and throw it into themiddleof the garden to die,
drying to a thin shell.
Carita called him for lunch. Carefully he
washed his hands in the stinging cold water from
the faucet by the gate. Grabbing the slippery cool
bottle of beer, he entered the kitchen wearing an
enormous grin and sat down at a shiny glazed
white tin table. The kitchen was hot and stuffy
like the yellow buses the family took to mass on
Sundays. Carita put down in front of him a
plate pUed with brown frijoles and a few chunks
of beef. A small plate held a huge platter of
steaming tortillas. The Bakers fed him well, like
few others, he decided. They didn't have to, he
thought. Why should they? But the smell of beer
and beans and tortillas was too powerful to leave
room in his breiin for other thoughts.
Felipe always left the easier work for after
lunch. Burping gently, he unrolled the long green
hose and washed down the driveway and the street
in front, cleaning away the mashed carpet of fallen
leaves and berries. This is the life he thought. A
good lunch, a clean soul, a beautiful day. A cart
with four good wheels. No sickness at home. He
forced a stream of air through his chUe- red stained
lips. The notes wavered, floated, and flowed
through the air. Felipe Ruiz was happy.
Just as the sun slipped down behind him,
Senora Baker came out to pay him. Oh, what a
fine woman, he thought. Blond and good.
"Do you want me to keep today's money,
Felipe," she asked in Spanish.
"Oh si por favour senora," he answered. Mrs.
Baker was his banker. She had a little blue school
note-book with the numbers on the back, which he,
Felipe, had taken from his eldest daughter. In
there they kept their finances. He peeked over. He
could not read, but could see the peso sign. He
trusted her.
She gave him the notebook and the pen. Care-
fully rubbing the ink from the pen nib onto his
right thumb, he pressed it painstakingly onto the
page. Now he, Felipe, and no oneelsehad signed
it
He packed up his rough brown bag, tied it to
the cart rolled it down the driveway and let
himself out. Whistling, he gave his cart a push,
and together they crunched over the new green
carpet under the tree, and down the street.

Solitude
My solitude is something i treasure
my beach my cluster of new
trees,
yes new trees,
the flowing river i explored as a child
A child as always i will be
a child of imagination
a child with the nature of things
who threw stones from the day
he was born
as the rushing waters drew him near ...
Exploring the grass thatchways, exploring
the mousehole,
exploring the doorway, exploring the
cracks of time that let me in,
exploring obliviously the nature
of the winds, sprawled before a great elm tree
my nature is one of unique smallness.
i am a flee upon the tidal sands
a tiny crystalline creature
Moving
back and forth with the thundering wash
Waves of the cold winter's water
now roll in
i know my solitude
i wish it to echo in my brain forever
not to be forgotten
it must be time and time again with me,
for in my solitude i know myself.
Pat Morris
Faint Green
A day can be music if you stay
on it to be with it
like a bird in voice
sings just above my listening limbs
where alone I smiling smoke.
I am of the day when
alone I plod to its
sun and green bursting with
sudden poems
which threaded through the field
and air themes,
leave gentle shapes behind
to be immersed
in somewhere invisible.
Happiest here alone
my singleness
sings
Like the bird above.

"The Things of Real Value in Life. .
The sage sits silently under the shade of
the sycamore tree, cross-legged, dragging con-
tentedly on the imitation blue brass hookah
and wondering why the slty is so very blue,
and why the lambs are so very white. Ponder-
ing lugubriously. . . contemplating . . .
He lays his hookah down on the ground,
and the silence is shattering as he sucks at his
blueberrj' blizzard. It is a hot day.
"Yes." he replies to the young boy kneeling
on the grass at his feet, "yes, there must be
some things of real value in life today. Man
is more civilized now than he has ever been
before — isn't he? He must be truly happy now
. . . Surely there must be more to civilization
than endless radio commercials, highways cram-
med with mass-produced cars, travelling at
frightening speeds, bumper to bumper, each
containing exactly the same man commuting
through endless miles of non-descript suburbia,
wearing the same neat, cheap, light mass-pro-
duced suit, the same suave shades, and with the
same bulging wallet. After his four hours of
supervising computers doing the work of many
star^'ing unemployed, he has twelve hours of
leisure to fill. How? He gets into his car again,
and with his wife and two kids he is permitted
to have by law, drives off, as do the other
2 million inhabitants of his metropolitan area,
to the few square miles set by from the urban
sprawl £is a picnic area. What can he buy with
aJl his money? Happiness?
NO.
Surely there is a house somewhere in which
conversation replaces television, and books
replace radio, — where one can escape from the
endless tins and pre-packed foods, and see the
real egg: for these superficial benifits do not
bring happiness. There is such a thing as too
much leisure, which can destroy man as surely
as not enough."
The sage looks at the innocent, puzzled face
of the boy in front of him; at the white lambs
and the blue sky; at the hookah and the blue-
berry blizzard.
"Yes, there are some things of real value in
life . . . !"

The Ultimate Eventuality
There conies a time
When every man must find
One true love
And some peace of mind
It comes not like rain
But a burst of morning sun
Then all is beautiful
And he can cease to run
In everyone's soul
There is a mighty cavern
And to fill it with happiness
They will keep on strivin'
And beyond all doubt
I'm sure you will find
If you try the right way
That love will fill your mind
Try to find yourself and to find others
Then no longer will you be blind.
David Eardley-Wilmont Tom Russell
The mosquito flies around my arm,
Seeking it.
Finding it, lands on it.
If I hit it, it dies.
If I don't hit it, it pierces my vien.
If I let it live, it sucks my own blood
To live itself.
The mosquito loves and fears me as I love and
fear God.
The mosquito is matter;
living as I am.
Yet it's thoughts live only through mine;
And I am just a human, not a God!

Two Men
'I\vo men, through niy own eyes;
Easily distinguished the other from one.
A pair of contrasts, but quite the same
Through the eyes of the beholder, and 1.
One man is normal, in all ways right.
All others are wrong or different.
No other philosophy, religion or race,
Is quite as developed as his.
The second man is hard to e.xplain.
He's troubled within himself.
He has discovered his wrongs:
They're natural and impossible to change.
He's sick of the world, you see.
And of life.
No one cares for the things he cares
For he's run into a stubborn world.
He'll give up;
And I don't mean his worries; I mean his life.
But why should I talk as an onlooker
For I am at least one of these men.

'The year has passed'
My leaf friend said
'and it's time to review what's done:
A senator's been killed
And the war goes on
But still there is a setting sun.
Evil and beaut>' are still as they were.
Though they've prospered more
His friends, my friends
In commonlaw living
Are sinking as they near the shore.
Friends have come, friends have gone
But none of them can ever see
The experience and beauty of
Everj'one's life
That they have given to me.
From places near and places far
I have come from people I've known
Things that are good
And some that are bad
And what these people have shown.
Thank you friends, a salute to you
I offer for helping my year
And to you, dear Ann
I'll trj' Lf I can
To forget that you once shed a tear.

The Conquest
John Steven Harris was born in a small town
in the Rockies in 1907. He was born to a poor
woodcutter's family and since he was their first
child, they were, of course, very proud of him.
His father was an enthusiastic mountain
climber and since they were surrounded by high
mountains, he had ample opportunity to do his
favourite sport. When he realized that their baby
was a boy, he had high dreams of him becom-
ing a world famous mountain climber. Maybe
even of conquering Mount Everest, which in
those times was thought impossible.
John had different ideas, however, and even
though ever>- day since his sixth birthday, he
had gone strolling in the mountains with his
father, he went not because he liked it, but
because he loved his father deeply and liked to
spend long hours with him. He had never really
liked his mother and was very happy when he
and his dad could get away from his nagging
mother together. Even though he didn't like
mountain climbing, he never showed any signs
of his disinterest to his father because he knew
it would hurt him deeply, and this he wouldn't
do for the world.
So, on his sixteenth birthday, his father sur-
prised him with a complete mountain climber's
set And, cilthough he didn't want it, he knew
his father had stashed away every extra penny
he had for years to buy him this, and he just
couldn't refuse it now. On that very day, he and
his father set out to conquer a very small moun-
tain just near their home. And when they reached
the top he felt proud. Proud that he was born the
son of such a man. Proud that he had conquered
his first mountain. And proud that he was vic-
torious with the man he loved most in the world.
He felt good in his new clothes, in his new image
to his father as a mountain climber. Not only a
mountain climber, but a successful one as well.
And so as his life went on, he became more
devoted towards his father and even though he
continued with his mountain climbing, hebecame
less and less interested. Then, when he was thirtj--
two the war came along and he went off to fight
while his parents stayed home.
And then the war ended, and he came back to
his home in the Rockies. His mother had died
during the war, but he didn't really care because
he had Edways detested his mother for being there
and interfering with him and his father. Now that
she was out of the way, they no longer had to go
off to the mountains to be alone, for they were
alone all their life. But they continued their
mountain climbing, even though it was to much
less an extent than before for his father was get-
ting old.
Then one day John and his father set out to
conquer a mountain they believed they could
conquer. But they tried, and they failed. And John
hated that mountain because he could seethe pain
on his father's face. He promised his father that
some day he would reach the top of that mountain
and nothing would stop him.
A few years later his father died. And John
wept deeply for him, for he had loved him so.
John forgot all about his mountain climbing. He
even forgot all about his promise to his father.
Life for John was verj' simple. He liked no one
and no one liked him. He would leave to cut wood
and come back late at night, having the satis-
factory feeling that he had accomplished a full
day's work. Page
John loved his work and when a heart attack
at the age of fifty-three put him off work for three
years, he felt lost, for he had no one to visit him.
But he had a lot of time to think and he dreamt
back to the days when he and his father would
climb up on the mountains and look down on the
world around him. Then, one day as he was
dreaming he remembered the promise. And he
vowed to fulfill it.
So, three years after his attack, on his fifty-
sixth birthday, he set off to conquer the mountain
which had defeated him and his father about
twenty years ago. He remembered that exactly
fifty years ago he had set out with his father for
the first time. He remembered just how deliciously
happy he had been, climbing up the steep slopes
with his father. But today it was different, he was
alone! His father was dead! He was no longer
happy as he left the house, for he left alone and
he left nothing behind. He no longer had the
long talks with his dad to look forward to. He
set out to prove something to himself and to his
father and he was not coming back unless he had
proved it.
The morning was warm andthe sun beat down
upon his forehead. And as he took the first steps
up the mountain, he felt old. He felt those three
years! But he still continued to plod upward.
Up, up the steep, glass covered slope until
all the foliage disappeared. The going became
rough; the slopes steepened until finally he had to
climb up by rope. He hung in mid-air, suspended
only by a thick rope and a rock. And when when
a sharp rock gashed deeply into his flesh, he
cursed himself, and he cursed the mountain; and
he even cursed his father. And what he said he
said without thought and cried out for forgive-
ness. As the top of the mountain grew nearer,
he felt very weary, so he sat down to rest. But he
could not stop now because he knew that if he
stopped too long, he would never get up again.
And finally he reached his goal. As he looked
down at what he had accomplished, he cried out
in anguish, "Look Father, I have done it. I have
fulfilled my promise to you."
He felt so happy that he wept! But he was
tired and he felt pguns in his heart so his tears
did not fiow for long and he slept.
For John Steven Harris the dawn will come
no more; the sun will never rest behind the
mountains. For he has to join his father, the
man whom he so loved.

Memories Caused By A Flower Child
She couldn't understand, all of a sudden he
turned from her, his eyes flashing hate, a snear
crossing his lips. Why does he hate me? She
thought again. Was it because I had to stop him?
I had to. I couldn't let him keep going, he had
my emotions so worked up he could have had
me in a minute if I hadn't stopped him. Oh,
Lucius you bastard, why do you hate me?
It was a cold, cruel night out. Deborah had
finished studying for her last exam. Kids aJways
thought it was strange that she studied. She
would end up with at least 80 per cent so why
does she worry? Deborah had grown to disregard
the worshipful lines that were thrown at her. She
had learned at a young age that they were just
follow-ups to asking her to do their homework
for them. Deborah had had enough of that The
time had come to assert her individuality. She
had found herself, she thought, but in the process
she had lost many of her physical and mental
values.
Deborah was walking quickly; thestacattolike
click of her high heels was the only sound on the
street. The echoes of the heels, the blackness of
the night, the exhaled air appearing and dis-
appearing as she overtook the street lamps were
the only sights and sounds. Suddenly, a cold
wind brought a chill to her spine. She knew
instinctively that something was wrong. She ten-
sed, she heard rushing footsteps and then sud-
denly she felt the cold snowy pavement pressing
against her body, a gloved hand was searching
around her breasts, searching for her purse. The
purse was yanked from her hand, a foot landed
on her outstretched hand as the attacker fled.
Silence. No scrcEun, no tears, just silence.
Deborah was jolted awake. The dream had
been too real. It wasn't a dream in a sense. It was
a recurring memory, a chill startling memory.
Suddenly realization. The brief glimpse of her
attacker. The feeling of the hand upon her breast,
the glint of the black eyes as they hovered over
her face, downcast, searching for the purse. The
glimpse of the black piled curly hair. The way
her attacker ran down the street. Images were
too familiar, patterns converged towards too
much sameness. Deborah's mind finding patterns,
finding irregularities, would not let herseLT believe.
Lucius, why do you hate me?

"The Estrangement of Frank Bailey"
Down to the docks,
Down to the dirt>' filthy docks.
Along the muddy streets the little girls
with dirty, too short dresses are playing in
the dirt.
Dark green broken pickett fences,
worn out grass.
.And dirt>- steps and open doors.
Mothers yelling, children crying, fathers
drinking
people watching.
Opened windows and darkened rooms a naked
lightbulb
ugly walls.
A broken bottle, a bit of blood, a young boy
cr>'ing,
a young boy laughing.
Bits of chalk
and bits of stone,
some kids skipping
and others smoking.
Broken toys and bouncing balls,
and roller skates and ugly scrapes,
Crj'ing lives and dying lives,
dirtj' lives and dying lives,
dirty* lives and lying lives.
The noise of horns, the heat of the day,
the smell of dirt, the sight of waste.
All on the way to the docks.
All on the way to the dirtj', filthy docks.
— Phii Eamshaw
He had a heart of stone, at least that is what
his few friends had told him, but he didn't mind.
Frank Bailey went on living life and was proud
of the fact that little of what went on around him
moved him.
Ever since the time he had left school he had
managed well. He remembered the time his par-
ents pleaded with him to continue at his studies,
but Frank, unwilling to continue the dull life he
was offered, left home. He had been sure that he
could make it up by himself, and wasn't he right?
He had a small apartment, drab but his own,
overlooking Day and Walnut streets. Sometimes
he would chew on his balogna and liverwurst
sandwhich and watch the people stroll by. How
funny it seemed that they all had places to go.
Frank had been working quite a while as a
stock boy in a small grocery store. It wasn't an
exciting job, but it was all he had to do to earn
the money he needed. He was confident of the
fact that any time he wanted to earn more money
he could go out and find a better job. He joked
about this every Saturday night with the boys at
the coffee shop down the street. There were those,
still in school, who would agree with him, but
most would shake their heads and wish him luck.
Frank needed no one, and no one needed
Frank. He was quite independent. Theotherboys
at work took their girl-friends out to a dance or a
movie over the weekends, but Frank had no one.
He sometimes wondered why he sat alone most
of the evenings, but he didn't mind. Often, when
Frank passed couples in love he longed to join
in the fim. But he would settle down in a chair
at home and read of men in love and laugh at
their foolishness for being trapped in such a fate.
Once while walking through the city park he
met a pretty girl named Anne. She was kind and
friendly and good company to have. Frank was
astonished to find that he was actually attracted
to the girl. He made a point of walking along the
same path every week in the hope that they might
once again meet. And they did, and Frank arran-
ged a meeting place so that they might stroll in
the park together. Anne seemed happy with this
arrangement, and Frank found himself more and
more attracted to this girl. So fond was Frank of
her company, that this walk with Anne was the
one thing he looked forward to in the week.
At the end of the spring, when Frank's love
was in full bloom, Anne failed to make several
appointments, and Frank spent the weeks in
agony. When at last she was there, she was not
alone. She introduced the young man as her
fiance, and Frank realized that he would no
longer enjoy a walk in the park.
From then on Frank was seen only going to
and coming from work. He had no place to go,
but he didn't need anyone. He would sit in his
apartment and read by the cold light of his desk
lamp. He would read of men in love, and laugh
at their foolishness for befalling such a fate.

Editorial
On Campus — the one section that takes a
stab at the most difficult of tasks — humour. The
three themes this year conarned "little things"
about the school itself, rather than certain indivi-
duals. (There are no longer personal cuts!) As
a result, a ver>- limited number of students flung
full forc-e into the project of exposing various
aspects of the school that would seem quite
humourous, having been brought out into the
open. Perhaps in bad taste but . . .
Now the flexibility of these themes has, I
realize, been exploited" to the fullest. Material has
ranged from pure gaietj- to downright bitterness,
from fresh commentar\' to stale repetition. And
through it all, there remained only one purpose
— to enlighten some of themoreremotebut potent
members of the TCS Convocation. Unfortunately
On Campus acquires its reading circulation from
those who are presently experiencing the happen-
ings outlined. Alas, yet another paradox.

A Humourist?
The Red Rover Adventure
It all started when proceedings got bogged up
and tableaux, (formerly fairy-hop) was kept
waiting. Due to the collection of characters that
usually makes up this elite group, keeping them
waiting is a no-no. Alas . . .
The body heat of one hundred and fifty boys
on a hot day began to have its effects in the foyer
around 2:45, Saturday, May 10. Corpses gradu-
ally collapsed on the grass in the quad. The
worst being over, conversation turned to the up
and coming weekend. Smiles, then laughter, then
everybody was rolling around howling — Let's
build a pyramid. More laughter.
Discussions turned to other pranks, with talk
centred around surrounding dignitaries. All sugg-
estions could not be printed now and were un-
thinkable then. But they were good for morale.
Restlessness prevailed. "Let's play RED ROVER."
A good forty husky bodies split into two teams
while others dispersed with blushing faces.
Whooooo! The game featured the complete des-
truction of one lad, an unfortunate incident of
near death for another, otherwise good times for
all. This was being carried on with thunderous
applause and joyous screaming, as a result attrac-
ting large crowds all the way from thegym. Apo-
logies to the gym team.
The joyous mood carried on after the game
right up to showtime. Celebrations included a
salute to "Shig Shag" and loud applause for
anyone who happened to look the wrong way.
Congratulations to all involved for atremendous
performance. As with all fine traditions, we hope
this event will be continued far into the future.

Looking Bock on Form Development
THIRD FORM
This year's third form was unique in that it
did not have a full congregation of New Boys (of
course, the reference is being made to those few-
hard-core ex-second formers). This presented dif-
ficulties and many embarassing moments.
Switch-over of classes always brings on contact
between third form and sLxth form classes. The
moment is ripe for the violation of certain nasty
no-nos. "Someone went through that door."
"Come back!" "You're up for a week." Amidst
the turmoil a heckling non New Boy would turn
around, hands in pockets, jacket open, and he
would stick out his tongue. Oh, harsh!
This novelty soon wore off, and the New Boys
took the limelight. The first thing that became
clear was their lack of imagination and mischief
initiative. To rectif\' this humourless situation, the
Prefects, through a laborious but very ironical
process, late one night did everythingbut actually
pull a prank in the name of New Boys. Any mas-
ter who taught third form Thursday mornings
will certify' how mischievously inspired the form
could be due to the previous night's work. But,
alas, all that could be mustered was shaving
cream and apple pies.
The third form could have made history as
the most untamed and rebellious group of New
Boys to have hit the school. This involved the
"pool" incident. But every member concerned
denied any intention of revolt, and it faded away
as merely a prank in bad taste.
We wish the whole form the best of luck next
year as they head for the fourth form slump,
during which the main event is usually the New
Boy year. Maybe then all will talk of it as a
revolt.
FOURTH FORM
Fourth formers usually reminisce about their
New Boy year when they find thatthereis nothing
to rebel against and they are free of petty restric-
tions. There were no such memoirs this year.
Having pretty well dissolved any notion of fag-
ging and door holding in their New Boy year,
fourth-formers generally were no more restricted
than before. Blending in with an equally corrupt
group of fourth form New Boys, the form settled
in to attain a high level of degenerac>'. Any mas-
ter who taught 4B1 will verify that this attain-
ment was admirably achieved. Any flat prefect
would agree that the fourth formers everj'where
contributed their instabilit\' and insanit>' to the
character of each flat. This was true right from
top Ketchum to bottom Bickle. One thing is for
sure — any form that can create such dignified
degeneracy and have such a good time doing it,
has got a great deal of potential.
FIFTH FORM
The development of this form duringthe 1968-
69 year has been remarkable. Coming out of
relative obscurity, the form has become one of
the most diversified and defined forms in years.
Their versatility is clearly illustrated with the
comparison of the Brent House " " squad to
the anonymous Bickle House forest rangers. The
diversity is even clearer at fifth form tables which
featured everything from fourth-helping "jock-
strappers" to dogmatic debating executives. Unity
was attained only on one thing, the heavy and
unrelentless criticism of everything that was being
done or not being done. Ironically enough, the
same gab will all be thrown on them next year.
Good luck in the reconciliation department.
Poge 36
SIXTH FORM
Due to the great disunity, we will take each
division in turn.
SLx'th Formers — Probably the most cohea-nt
factii>ii in the form, one could locate the whole
group together several times a day — at the sixth
form table, the bell tower, and Downtown Head-
quarters. The nwre outsp(.)ken sixth formers were
also the most alert at spotting injustices, estab-
lishment tyranny, and status corruption. A good
case for the abolition of TCS can be obtained
immediately upon request (and sometimes with-
out request) from most of the same people.
House Prefects — The donation of a House Pre-
fect common room at the beginning of the year
cast a light of optimism on the search for an
identity- for these poor forgotten souls. The fact
that nothing else can be said of importance about
this group proves that the optimism was unjusti-
fied. But the H.P.'s made an appearance on Fag-
night, all five of them, or was it four, perhaps
six?
House Officers — This ever-growing number of
students were totally committed to the cause of a
totalitarian ruling over New Boys — partly due
to the age old problem of the H.O., that of not
being able to obtain New Boy labour at any time
except in the morning. For kicks, the House Offi-
cers would stage various side shows in their
common room, demonstrating their happy antics
for some unimpressed New Boy. Common room
stunts have an even greater future with the attain-
ment of a smoking privilege there.
School Prefects — A great cross-section of school
made up this staff, ranging from Head-Choirboy
to the President of the Billiards Club. Their
leadership extended far and wide. This body was
also noted for its individualism, illustrated by the
distinct styles of pronouncing grace.
i
The IVORY TOWER Review
1968-69 featured the first anniversary of the
TCS student newspaper, "The Ivorj' Tower",
sometimes referred to as the "Winnipeg Mani-
festo". It appeared to be a most flexible organiza-
tion at first glance, fielding articles expressing
any side to any issue. Its editors ranged from
"Cordless ShaveV" Murton to " Toulouse Lautrec"
MacKav. But it was all verj' deceptive.
The top one editor skillfully and subtly deceived
everyone, except his cohort, "Gary 'Junior' Puck-
ett". The whole year's policy was New Left
propaganda (possibly a Red plot) that has
subdued all the avid subscribers at Trin Trin. A
hard-line leftist policy was set in motion by the
editor. Glimpses of it were shown in the "Revolu-
tion of Fat Mai", in the complete demolition of
the Establishment by the "Voice of the People",
in the article entitled " Happiness is the New Left
in Religion", and the most blatant of all in
"Revolution", by, of all people, a New Boy. As
decoys, articles on the tine ways of the "right"
written by notable fifth formers would be put in.
An even greater decoy was thephilosophicguffaw
on life, notably as a "rectangle".
Through it all, the editors pleaded innocent,
stating that no one wrote for ihe paper, or read
it. or reacted to it. Pleas went out in every form,
ranging from an existentialist play to a statement
declaring the greatest problem in the world to be
apailiy — (subtle, eh!). More proof of a cover-up
(an be illustrated by the front cm d back covers.
On the front the paper artistically projects the
impression of "an ivory tower, while the back
ri.monstrated their knowledge of every "in" joke
liscend upon the school, through the
Ldium of Quantum Bear. Note: (The
true highlight of the year for the paper had to be
at Christmas in the P'''RENCHplay, (of tillplaces)
when Q.B. rose to the occasion in real life with a
murderous two feet by ten feet slide rule, to the
thunderous applause of the Trin Trin students.)
So the master conspiracy' has been exposed.
The New Left has been firmly ingrained in the
secure minds of Trin Trin students by a radical-
minded editor. Beware of next year's plot —
sincerity.

The Travellers
A Canadian folk group. The Travellers, travel
from sea to sea, from St. Catharines to the Arctic
Circle playing songs which form a distinct part
of the Canadian heritage. The members of the
group all have other jobs and need not play. But
they realize how easy it is for people today to
live merely in thepresent, forgettingtheroUicking,
rip-roaring and, sometimes gentle ballads of
Canada.
Using subtle methods of crowd persuasion, The
Travellers managed to get the usually apathetic
and cj'nical T. C.S. audience clapping, singing,
laughing and generally plugged in. "This Land
is Our Land", was sung well and with gusto.
Somebody obviously spilled the beans to the
group, for throughout the show they talked about
Fat Albert, the Tree and other little school idio-
syncrasies. This, of course, brought the house
down time after time.
The whole show was different — from the
songs to the surprising ctowd participation.
They showed how a banjo and two accoustical
guitars can still turn people on. There was,
however, from the dark beyond the limelight the
insistent lead of an electric guitar.

THE EIGHTH CENTENNIAL LECTURE:
Dr. Wilder Penfield: "A String of Beads'
On the evening of May 9, T.C.S. held its
Eighth Centennial Lecture in thenew gymnasium,
featuring Dr. Wilder Penfield astheguestspeaker.
A renouned neurosurgeon and author. Dr. Pen-
field knew and very much admired the late Sir
William Osier whose life he saw as an inspiration.
Dr. Penfield stressed his admiration of theancient
Greeks and the importance of moderation in day
to day living. He echoed the sentiments of Sir
William when he said: "Get interested not in one
thing, or a part of a thing, but in all things ..."
Stories of ghosts and befuddled newspaper
reporters added humour to Dr. Penfield's speech.
As Jon Dreyer, the Head Prefect, pointed out at
the end of the evening, the speech provided ample
reason to continue the Centennial Addresses.

Inspection Day — 1969
Although the weathemian had issued dark
warnings about the atmosphere on May 10,
1969. Inspection Day dawned sunny if a little
cold. T.C.S. must be exceptionally dose to the
Almighty's heart, forimportantdaysalwaysseeni
to barely squeak by between days and days of
foul weather.
It also squeaked by in another way: The
students' dislike of the Cadet system seems to
grow ever>- year. It appears to be about time to
have a serious look at the system.
But this year. Inspection Day dawned with the
sun shining and with more than a couple of early
risings ji order to get those buttons shone.
Because of the expansion of the School, the
Squadron grew to five flights: Bethune, Bickle,
Brent and Ketchum (in alphabetical order!), and
the Precision Squad. The Houses were led by
Cadet Flight Lieutenants T. W. Barnett, Ian
Taylor, Duncan Gow, and G. T. Simmons, with
the Precision Squad being led by D. C. O'Kell.
Major General Hull made the traditional ins-
pection. Following the Parade, the Bethune Cup
for the best drill was awarded to G. T. Simmons
by Major General Hull.
Although the sun was shining, some big-
hearted soul decided that the wind would be
stiff for t-shirts and the gymnastic display was
held instead in the new gym. In spite of the lack
of space, the show went off well, with a little
swift commanding from Mr. Armstrong. There
were some magnificent shows presented, especially
from Boulden House.
If the emphasis is ever changed from Cadets
to the school activities on Inspecton Day, Inspec-
tion Day this year proved that it is possible. The
Photography Club printed and mounted well over
sixty good photographs for sale. Unfortunately,
there were disappointingly few photographs
bought. Other displays and tours included every-
thing from scuba diving to the Language Lab.
Guided tours of the school (a Fourth Form
activity) were also available to the visitors.

Speech Day - 1969
T.C.S."s Great White God pulled through again
and presented us with a beautiful day, the last
of the school year. As the sun slowly rose over
the buildings, picking out the top of Boulden
House, then the Centennial Gates, then the fields,
the many pairs of eyes leaving T.C. S. for the last
time could see that there was something different
Now, what could it be . . . ah, there it is! Four
black posts had greeted the night before, prim
and proper as e\'er. Black as widow's eyebrows.
There to guard against cars travelling down the
gravel path. And now, NOW, psychedelic as . . .
well, as Timothy Learj-'s bedposts. Major Jack
was a little annoyed but many liked the posts.
WTiether or not they will stay like that is debat-
able, however!
At 11:00 a.m., the Sixth Form foUowed the
Headmaster into the Chapel and the leaving
service began. Immediately after the service, the
prize giving took place in front of the Old class-
room block.
The prize giving began with an address bj' the
Vice-Chciirman of the Governing Body, Mr. A. A.
Duncanson, followed by the Headmaster's annual
address. Mr. R D. P. Mulholland gave a short
speech and presented the prizes.
Jon Dreyer, the Head Prefect, gave his report
following the prize giving. He presented Mr. Cohu,
Choir Master and the School organist for over
forty years with presents from both the School
and the Choir. N'ot an Old Boy there had not
been musicEilly instructed in descants, chords, and
octaves by Mr. Cohu. Young Boys and Old Boys
are sorrj* to see him go.
Jon noted in his speech that 1969 could be
called a bad year for the school but that he would
prefer it to be called a searching year. Everjlhing
did not go right. We were not always on the right
track but many of our outlooks were adjusted to
suit the enlarged body of the School without
changing the unique character held within
its walls.

Headmaster's Report
Mr. Chairman, Mr. Mulhollaiui, Ladies and
Gentlemen:
It is a pleasure to welcome all our visitors
to yet another Speech Day. To Mr. Mulholland,
an Old Boy, a parent of an Old Boy, a Life
Governor of the School, and a distinguished
Canadian, may I say that we are both happy
and honoured that you and your charming wife
could be with us today.
The good weather, the impending summer
holiday, and thearrtiy of prizes and awards which
are laid out before you give this occasion an air
of happy celebration. Thatwe have treated Speech
Day as a celebration is a strong reason for its
sur\-ival for 104 years at T.C.S. Moreover,
Shakespeare has told us that ceremony was
devised to set a gloss on deeds. Worthy deeds
are to be remembered today.
Last September we moved into the new build-
ings. We admitted an additional twentj'-five boys
to the Senior School. We added a fourth house.
The year has been one of resettlement and re-
examination. Settling into the new buildings has
meant necessary changes to well tried practices.
The climate of the times has caused us to re-
examine the means we use to achieve the goals of
a T.C.S. education. Methods of operation, dis-
ciplinary control, and routines established for a
Senior School of 200 boys and two houses have
not proved adequate for a school of 250 boys
and four houses. In this re-examination, the
Curriculum Committee, consistingof both masters
and boys, has been most helpful in our re exami
nation. The relationship between masters and
boys is as close at this school as it is anywhere
in Canada, but masters and boys have never sat
down together in quite the same circumstances
as they have done in this curriculum committee.
Although we had a predictably slow start, by the
end of the year the committee had some worth-
while suggestions to make about courses of study,
week-end activities, reports to parents, and the
daUy routine of the School.
The academic standards which we expect of
boys remain at a high level, officials of the
Department of Education who inspected theschool
having given us an excellent report. Again we
have done wellinthe Junior Mathematics Contest.
The School placed first in our division. 17,250
boys and girls entered this contest; the top T.C.S.
boy placed sixty second or in the first one half
percent of al\ who wrote. Again the Mathematics
masters are to be congratulated.
In all our work increasing use is being made
of methods of communicating knowledge other
than those traditionally associated with the class-
room. I refer to television, films, fit mstrips, slides,
audio tapes, and instant visual illustration by
overhead projectt)r. The new library has enabled
us to extend the demands we make on boys from
Boulden House to the Sixth Form for essays and
for objects retiuiring independent study and
research. The new library and the new science
facilities have made possible more directed inde-
pendent study. By this I mean the practice of
excusing from regular classes for a period of time
top students in the Senior forms to allow them to
study a topic on their own under the direction of
the master. May I remind you that we are com-
mitted to Alfred North Whitehead's maxim that
the most valuable intellectual development is
self-development.
In athletics we have had more success than
ever before in involving those boys not on school
teams in healthy and enjoyable recreationed acti
vities. I refer particularly to themulti-sportleague
in the winter term and in the spring term to the
Cricket League which has been so effectively
nursed back to health by Mr. Hargraft. We have
won somechampionships. The Bigside BasketbaJI
Team are to be congratulated on winning the
Independent School Championship. The Senior
Rugger Team have also won the Independent
School Championship, as well as the Kawartha
ChEunpionship. Middleside Hockey are to be
congratulated on their victory for the first time in
a number of years over the Little Big Four
Schools. The Tennis Team deservespecialpraise.
For the second year in a row, they have won the
Little Big Four Championship. In congratulating
all these teams, I remember and I would like
you to remember the work of the coaches.
On a different but nonetheless hearty plane,
the Debating Team brought back to T.C.S. the
Fulford Trophy, representative of their victory
over Ridley, S.AC, and U.T.S. They are to
be congratulated. Art continues to flourish
at the school with the inspired instruction of Mr.
Blackwood who, I am glad to say, is returning
as artist in residence of Trinity CoUege School.
The Choir is to be commended for all their hard
work and particularly for their fine performance
at St. Matthias Church in Montreal. "The Record"
when it finally makes its appearances Is keeping
up the high standard set in previous years. On
the other hand "The Ivory Tower" has sometimes
proved to be a disappointment. A year ago I said
that it would continue to be of value if it encour-
aged good writing and clear thinking. It has not
Page 51
encouraged clear thinking because too often it has
presented only one point of view. A special word
of praise goes to the cast and the production
staff of "Oliver": the boys, the masters, the mas-
ters' wives, till who took part both on stage and
back stage, and especially tlie directors, Mr.
Gordon and Mr. Burns and the musical wizard,
Mr. Prower. In my opinion. "Oliver" was the
most lively, the most polished, the most profes-
sional show ever given at T. C.S.
Inspection Day, for all its critics both within
and without the school, went very well. I do
congratulate you boys on the way you rose to
the occasion on that day. The Cadet Band was
the best in years and I congratulate Kayler, its
leader. The spirit infused in the new Ketchum
House by Mr. Lawson and by Simmonds were
suitably rewarded by their winning the Bethune
Cup in the House competition.
The Prefects deserve praise for the way they
have tackled a difficult and delicate task in the
past term. To paraphrase and adapt something
that General Eisenhower said about leadership:
The School needs solid sound leadership from its
students, those with inexhaustible energy to spur
on the efforts of lesser men, and with ironclad
determination to stand up for the principles the
School holds sacred, even in face of discourage
ment, criticism and perhaps even abuse.
For the first time in memy years we have had
exchange students with us this term. I am going
to reserve judgment on the success of the scheme
until I see how the T.C.S. boys in Scotland have
fared. On this side of the water, I hope we have
given Goldsbrough and Menzies who came to us
from Glenalmond something worthwhile to take
back: a new and different point of view; progress
in their studies; and some new friendships. Both
boys having fitted in well, I was most pleased
to see Goldsbrough win his Bigside Colour and
to be given a Distinction Award in Rugger.
From Boulden House, Mr. Tottenham reports
that this has been a good year in all fields of
endeavour. Academically it has been a year of
innovation and discovery. With the many new
teaching aides at our disposal, we have accomp-
lished much and look forward to doing even more
next year as we improv-e our skill in the use of
these new machines.
There has been a very good spirit in the
School and this has shown up very clearly in our
games. Win or lose, we have played well and
enjoyed our games at all levels. Mr. Tottenham
says that his staff this year must rate among the
best he has had, and he thanks all of them for
their hard work, enthusiasm and loyalty. In this,
I heartily concur.
Mr. Cohu, after 42 years as organist and
choirmaster of the school, is retiring. It is difficult
to find words which adequately express thanks to
a man who has devoted his life to the School.
Indeed, perhaps it is not necessary to attempt to
do so, for the true reward for all his years of
service is to be found in the respect by which he
is held by generations of T.C.S. boys who have
been influenced by the wise, patient, firm, pro-
fessional hand of this great schoolmaster. T.C.S.
will miss you. Billie Cohu. Also leaving us are
Mr. Baker who is going to Cambrian College in
Sault Ste. Marie where he wU] be in charge of
setting up a department of philosophy, Mr. Simp-
son who is returning to university to study law,
and Mr. Maclnnes who is joining the staff of
Appleby College. I thank all these men for the
work they have done for the boys of the School.
I thank Mrs. Harrison for the way she has
kept the domestic side of Boulden House running
so smoothly for the past five years. Mrs. Belton,
who has been nurse in Boulden House for twelve
years, is leaving us to begin her well-earned
retirement. Virtually on twenty four hour call,
her task has not been easy, but in spite of the
heavy demands, Mrs. Belton has always taken
great care with sick boys in her charge.
To a conscientious staff at the end of another
year of hard work, I say thankyou. Particularly,
I want to thank Mr. Dcile, who, together with the
Housemasters, has lifted some of the burden from
my shoulders, as have Mr. Lindop, the Bursar,
and Mr. Kerr, the Executive Secretary of Convo
cation. I am grateful to Mr. Humble, the Senior
Master, for his advice which is cdways sound. I
thank both Mr. and Mrs. Humble for the many
many extra hours they spent in setting up the
new library last summer. To many masters'
wives who have voluntarUy given of their time
in a variety of ways to help us at the School. I
am most grateful. And. as cdways, my thanks
go to my patient secretary. Mrs. Doggett.
Mr. Chairman, before ending this report, I
want to mention certain principles in which the
School believes because I think the time has come
to assert them again. In so doing, I am address
ing my thoughts to you boys, to your parents,
to members of the teaching staff, to Old Boys,
indeed, to everyone who is interested in or who
has a part in education at T.C.S.
I mention first the principle that schools must
devote themselves to bringing out the best and only
the best that is in the young. Dr. Wilder Penfield,
in his wise lecture delivered on the evening of
Inspection Day, mentioned the Greek virtue Arete,
meaning Beyond Excellence. Even if this gOEd
is unobtainable for most of us, it is nevertheless
worth striving for. Robert Louis Stevenson re-
minds us that, "It is a better thing to travel hope-
fully than to arrive." Schools must always
encourage the young to strive for something
above and beyond them. Today it is especially
important that we stress the dignitj' and nobilitj-
of man. This is not to be interpreted by the
young that we are unaware of the tawdrj' and tlie
sordid that per\'ades so much of the literary and
artistic work of this generation, or that we wish
to shield them from harmful influences or that we
would rather ignorethemany ignobleartsof man.
Not at all. But 1 say our job is not to glorify
these things. Rather, our job is to show off the
best, and so to inspire you boys to strive beyond
excellence that you will make the world abetter
place than you found it when your turn comes.
tianity is an attitude to life, and instilling in them
a sense of the true values of life, to all of these
are we committed. Edmund Burke, the great
English statesman, spoke of a nation's greatness
being founded on the virtues instilled in its great
men. Sitting before me today is a boy, who knows,
perhaps a number of boys, who will rise to true
greatness. Of some of you we e.xpect great things.
Of all of you we expect your best. I end with the
prayer that the virtues instilled in you by Trinitj'
College School and written on the tablets of your
hearts will prove worthy guides in the life that
lies before you.
Goodbye and good luck to all who are leaving
us today.
Next is a word about discipline. Punctuality,
neatness of dress, length of hair, a definite daily
routine, the restrictions of community life in a
boarding school, not to mention the steady pres-
sure of demanding academic work or the time-
consuming training needed for successful athletic
competition, all of these come within the realm of
the sort of discipline which must be learned at
school. This school is committed to instilling
discipline in its boys because nothing, nothing
worthwhile can be achieved without it. So often
this truth which is evident enough to adults who
stop to think has been forgotten by parents and
even by schools. I should add that it is a truth
that the young are unlikely to stumble upon by
themselves. We must remember, however, that
these plants are tender. Too much care will stifle
them. We have always believed that as boys
mature they must be given the opportimity to
discipline themselves. Nevertheless, they do need
guidance. Some of our problems in the modern
w^orld stem from adults abdicating their respon-
sibilit\- for giving the young the guidance they
need. There is another danger besetting our task
today. We must guard against insisting on codes
laid down in another age in another set of
circumstances. This school must put its stamp
upon a boy. But the stamp we put on him must
be a set of standards to which we guide him and
in which he himself sees validity for today's
world.
That we are a Christian School implies that
we recognize the spiritual nature of man. This
spiritual nature needs nurturing and, therefore,
I believe the worship of God in our chapel to be
an important part of a boy's education. That we
are a Christian school implies that we recognize
there are signposts to guide us in our daily lives,
that these signposts are God-given, that much of
what we learn and much of what we do can only
have meaning within the context of Christian
thought and belief. Helping boys to read these
signposts, helping them to understand that Chris-

BIGSIDE CRICKET
Captain's Report
Inferior butting led to a disappointing season
this year for Bigside cricket. Our bt)wling was
consistent, with Jim Robson and George Robb
proving to be most effective, and there was no
lack of depth, as Chris Cakebread, Ian Campbell
and Mac Barford were a welcome changeofpacc.
However, as was shown once agin tliis year, in
school boy cricket, batting is the key to success.
The natural ability is there, but is not being
developed to its fullest potential. Our only success-
ful innings at bat were against bowling inferior
to that of Upper Canada and Ridley.
The two games we did win were against
Appleby and Lakefield, which did not prepare us
sufficiently for the rest of the I.S.A. A. competition.
The highest batting score of the season was 102
against the Toronto Cricket Club where Ralph
Keefer hit 50 runs not out. This could better
have been saved for a later date.
We have talent returning next year, and with
the right start, we could develop into a stronger
batting side. But this is still a long way off. If
we are to see an I.S.A.A. championship at the
school once more, we must be prepared to spend
more time with our younger potentials and see
if the ability' to bat under pressure, which was
so badly lacking this j-ear, can be instilled into
the future members of Bigside.

Captain's Report
Middleside Cricket suffered badly from the lack
t)f coaching this year, as Mr. Corbett and Mr.
Godfrey had a full time job on their hands with
Bigside. However, with the help of John Nugent,
of the 1964 L.B. F. Championship team, we
managed to produce one win and a draw from
our total of se\'en games. This record is not in
fact as bad as it sounds, as two of these games
were against men's clubs.
Chris Read and Glenn Sernyk bowled very
well all season, and we were lucky to have Ian
McGregor with us for two games in which he
bowled very well. It was, howe\'er, batting that
was our weakest link, and although we had a
very efficient fielding side, that was not enough.
This was a very young team, and had great
spirit, which was supplemented in several games
by Mr. Burns and his sense of humour. There
was a lot of potential among the players this
year, and it is my hopethatitwill come to fruition
with more attention at the Bigside level nextyear.

LinLESIDE CRICKET
Captain's Report
Although Littlcside did not win a great num-
ber of games, we played well and had a lot of
fun. Throughout the season we fielded well, but
our batting seemed to let us down. We beat
Appleby, and lost to Ridley, the Toronto Cricket
Club and twice to L'.C.C. but the scorebook does
not show the whole picture.
We saw some good batting from Ben Currelly
Tottenham, Fischer and Hayes and excellent
wicket keeping from Tom Guy. We had some
competent bowlers in Ben Currelly, I. Currelly.
Hayes and Diile and good fielding all around. I
would like to thank Mr. Robertson and his
inspiring coaching.
This year for the first time, there was a second
under sixteen team, commonly known as Little-
side "B", coached by Mr. Machines. They did
not win many games, but ably captained by
D. Swift, they uncovered some talent which wiJl
be ver\- useful in later vears.

Coach's Notes
Captain's Report
Tlierc was a very large turnouf for rugger
which was particularly encouraging at the Junior
and Bantam le\'el. There was enthusiasm and
skill in all teams. The one area where criticism
can be applied is in tackling which was very
sloppy and indecisive. This was shown in the
Senior matches where our team had been too
much fed on attack cuid success. After one poor
match in which we had managed to beat a
mediocre team, a note of urgency crept into all
teams and play, particularly in defence, was
tightened.
Mention must be given to the fme leadership
of McN'abb and Steer and the decisive contribu-
tion by import Goldsborough. We anticipate a
successful and enjoyable season next year with
fine new players moving up through the school.
D. B. Redston
Contrary to last year's predictions, Rugger
this year has been successful. Good sportsman-
ship and enthusiasm proved to be the winning
combination.
Man_\- thanks to Mr. Redston and Mr. Wilton
for their competent coaching and confidence.
Fortunately, most of the players are returning.
Next year will hopefully be comparable.

TENNIS
I.S.A.A. CHAMPIONS
Captain's Report
For the second year in a row, the tennis team
won the Independent Schools Championships,
despite the loss of three players from last year's
team. Why? There are several answers. The
singles playing was excellent, thanks to the addi-
tion of Stuart Watt, that good-natured fellow from
Montreal. It was also a surprise tofmda doubles
team, our biggest worry, but the combination of
Jonny Sands' smashing overhead and Bruce
Barrett's net game proved almost unbeatable.
However, the most important reason, without a
doubt, was the long-awaited organisation of
tennis, thanks to Mr. Honey. His gently tyranny,
subtle as it was, was just what spring tennis
needed. No longer is it just for people out for a
laugh or to 'hack around', as several unfortunate
boys will testify. Mr. Honey provided the team
with the opportunitj- to play ever>' afternoon, and
the constant pracUcewas undoubtedly thewinning
factor in the championships.
But the championship itself was no easy win.
We won all our singles matches at the number
one and tvvo positions, but the doubles team
managed to beat only Appleby. Nevertheless, we
tied Upper Canada with nine points, but having
beaten them two to one, we took the cup once
again. A ver>' close, exciting tournament for
which all four boys fully deser\'ed the first team
colours they received.

TRACK AND FIELD
Captain's Report
Track and field is an individual sport. It is
not so much a sport for the spectator as a sport
for the participant, for it is one in which one
proves himself to himself, not to others. Track
is not a primary sport at T.C.S., and as a result
there is little glory involved, only personal glorj':
"I worked hard, I tried hard, 1 did my best."
This is especially so for those members of the
team who never placed in a meet, but nevertheless
came out every day to practice, working hard,
pushing themselves. They must becongratulated.
This year's track team e.xperienced a great
deal more success than is usual for a T.C.S.
track team, due inpart to valuable assistance from
some members of the rugger and cricket teams.
The team entered four meets, a dual meet with
Upper Canada, the Kawartha District meet, the
COSSA meet, and the Independent Schools' meet.
T.C.S. defeated the U.C.C. team in the dual
meet, and at the Independent Schools' meet, the
team made a fine showing, but with several
participants fulfilling their obligations to cricket
or rugger, we lacked the depth to place among
the winners.
At the Kawartha District meet on May 16, the
team did extremely well considering we were in
fact only a half-tecun (no girls!), with eight boys
qualifying for the COSSA meet (Central Ontario)
in Trenton the following week. At COSSA, Dave
Simpson qualified for the All-Ontario meet with a
second in the 100, Ian Medland and Craig
Armstrong picked up thirds in the hurdles and
javelin respectively, and the relay team of Bob
Rogers, Ian Medland, Steve Wilson and Da\-e
Simpson came an extremely close second in the
4 X 220 event; all inaU, averj' creditable showing.
Worthy of mention, certainly, is the fact that
T.C.S. set two Kawartha records in that meet.
Jim Robson ran the Senior hurdles in 16.5 for
one record and the relay team did the half-mile
in 1:37.4 for the other.
T.C.S. could have a good track team. The
potential is certainly there. However, track does
require hard, constant work, and there is no tea
break. It may be, and probably is, a question
of too few people for too many sports, but a
stronger emphasis could be placed on track. A
good start was made in this direction through the
increased interest and efforts of masters and boys
this year, and hopefully this will continue in
future years. A special thanks must go to the
coaches this year, Mr. Simpson, Mr. Prower, our
starter and sprint man, and Mr. Stevenson, who
was always there to put the runners through
their paces.

Boulden House Record
My comments on the Lent Term were too late
for the last Record, so here they are now!
Congratvilations to the Boulden House Hockey
team and their coach, Mr. Attridge, on a good
season. Their excvllent team play and very good
team spirit made them a pleasure to watch.
We congratulate all the cast of Oliver and
especially "Oliver" himselfand the Boulden House
gang on a wonderful performance.
Our sincere thanks to Mr. Lewis for his kind-
ness and unselfish devotion to skiing which made
our Sunday trips to Bethany so rewarding this
year.
Mr. Ralph F. Yates, who was Principal of
Boulden House from 1935-41, has presented a
copy of "Bartlett's Prints" of Pre- Confederation
Canada to the Library. This is a wonderful
addition to our shelves and our sincere thanks
go to him for this verj' kind thought.
Our sincere thanks also to Mr. Ross T. Guy
for his verj- useful gift of "Life" Science and
Nature Books.
Our summer term has passed as quickly as
ever. It has been a good year and I am sorry to
break up such a good group.
Congratulations from all of us to Mr. & Mrs.
Attridge on the birth of their daughter.
My sincere thanks to my Staff for their enthu-
siasm and hard work this year.
A good summer holiday to all of Boulden
House.

The Editor's Corner
This has been a verj- satisfactory term for all
of us. For many of us. it is our last term in
Boulden House and many memories of our life
here are with us to stay. It has been a good year.
Our cricket team has put on a very good show,
being beaten only by the Lakefield Middleside.
Unfortxmately, we were not allowed to play
Ridley because of heavy rain at the Toronto
Cricket Club.
We all go to the Senior School with apprehen-
sive excitement, wondering what the future holds.
Finally, I would like to express my thanks to
my staff, especially the photography department,
for their invaluable help this year.

Mr. E. Cohu
We of Boulden House would like to add our
personal share to the many well-deserved tributes
to Mr. Cohu. He has been an integral part of
us for so many years that we will feel his loss
very deeply.
"BUlie" has always been a most loyal colleague,
true friend and dedicated teacher. His high stan-
dards of manners and conduct have been an
inspiration for all of us. As new, young masters
we have all benefitted from his kindly, wise
guidance.
It is with a feeling of deep gratitude and affec-
tion that we wish him well, hoping to see much of
him in the future.
— C. T.
Mrs. Belton
Our Nurse-Matron, Mrs. Belton, is retiringthis
year after twelve years of loyal, devoted service
to Boulden House.
We wish her good health, happiness and a
well-earned rest in England. Our sincere thanks
to her for all she has done for us during her time
in the School.

The Trip to Old Fort Henry
On June 3rd (wo buses of Boulden Houseboys
headed along highway 401 to Kingston. At the
Royal Military College, they went through Fort
Frederick, an old fort turned into a Museum. At
the top there were several large cannons, while
on the other floors were displays of armaments,
uniforms and artifacts from old settlements.
The buses then drove to nearby Old Fort
Henry, a famous garrison which has been re-
conditioned. Before seeing the fort, a picnic lunch
was eaten in a park below. Two guides took the
groups around the various rooms and stores,
pointing out military and historical features. They
left everyone to go through the former enlisted
men's rooms, which now houses displays of guns,
ammunition, swords and medals. At three o'clock
a cannon was set off, putting an end to Boulden
House's tour of Fort Henry.

SPRING SOWING
Rescue
The brilliant lights and sooty shades struggled
for possession upon the skin and clothing of the
tense onlookers. Out of the windows, which were
located in a towering apartment building, belched
nimble (lames and black smoke. The flames would
stoop, nod and twist up towards the black sk>'.
High up above all, isolated by the devouring
flames perched a small child who screamed in
terror and bewilderment.
Eyes which had once found enjoyment in the
spectacle became stunned and expressionless, as if
Death Himself had been seen.
A fireman, horror stricken, stripped off his
clothing and slipped into an asbestos suit.
Clasping an axe, he dashed into the front
entrance of the building, only to be swallowed up
by the flames. Minutes later, the child, now in a
frenz>' of horror, left the window. All down below
grasped vainly at Hope. Had the child been
saved?
Minutes which seemed like hours passed. Then,
at last, the fireman was regurgitated by the flames.
As he cursed under his breath, he stretched out
his empt\' arms.

The Death Ride
She watched the tiny speck grow
On the distant road;
She knew it was her sweetheart.
Him.
He leapt down from his steed and
Swept her off her feet,
Looked at her bruised cheek,
Smiled,
Kissed it,
And said, "Farewell."
For he sought those
Who had caused the purple scar.
Some might call it revenge;
Others, a ride to one's death;
For no one can stand in King George's way,
Or his men's.
— Stephen Baker
Humanity
Swooping, swooping, round and round.
His long strong limbs were limp.
His bright round eyes were blood-shot
And his sharp talons that once gripped his prey
Could not grip any more.
From his pointed, brown beak
A pasty' red stream poured
Drip by drip, the blood streamed down his feathers.
His speed gathers, the ground approaches
He fell like a burning plane.
Falling, falling, faster and faster
100 feet, 50 feet, he spins, blood flies.
His cut head strikes the earth
And the force of his fall
Grinds him into the dark soil.
A smiling man comes near.
He pats his rifle.
Looks at the mangled bird.
Picks him up by the feathers
And calls himself humane.

Tie For The Trinity Creampuff Award
Evolution of Quiet
Chaos reigns, noise is even'where;
Suddenly, a cry is iieard: "Simddup!"
Stupified, tlie tiost turns as one to
the uivader of their sacred ground,
And cowers away from the enemy.
Slowly, but surely, the evolution of Quiet has begun.
Confident of victory. Quiet relaxes his guard;
A giggle is heard here, a booming laugh there,
But quiet is contemplating his powers.
More join the host, others leave;
Again Quiet raises his cry.
But now with supporters gained by silent shispering.
A furious batde rages, but although Quiet wins,
Noise continues his reign, with only the loss
of a few loyal subjects.
More restless than ever. Quiet exerts his full powers
And, in a maddened frenzy, deports Noise's heart
From the host.
But still fails to sever its life-giving connections.
And,
Destroy its reign.
Strained to the utmost. Quiet vanishes,
Leaves his lieutenants in charge,
And soon reappears.
Not alone.
But with a tall and ever-so-slightly-stooped master.
Who pauses in the doorway.
Instantaneously, Quiet severs the hearts life-giving
connections.
And kiUs noise.
In a second wild frenzy half the host is deported;
By playing on a bluff the battle has been won,
A miraculous victory, bestowed when all seemed lost.
Elusive Prey
I reach out,
trving to grasp and
hold
Time's
Splendour.
It strikes
back and continues
Rolling onward.
I spit on its mistreatment, then
Regret.
But too late. Time
Does not
look
back. — Bill Home

Study
1 looked about me and found myself sitting
in a sea of colour. Glistening red colours with
tinges of silver-like frost clinging to a Christmas
tree light merged with shades of brown corduroy
that stuck out like log cabins in anemptj- prairie.
Common colours mingled with brilliant green
checks that jumped, skipped and danced before
my fascinated eyes. A few singled themselves out
by displaying a playground of colour that would
niove. shout, mid swarm before me. Suddenly I
heard a distant rumble that sounded like a sum-
mer storm brec\king and the tide on my sea
began to rise. In the next instant it was gone,
leaving only a few colourful drops behind. These
too, one by one, disappeared, and when the last
jacket was" gone, I knew that study had been
released. , „

Boulden House Cricket

^ipljBfti .> . M^^^^^^^Bii
Captain of Cricket J. A. C. Clouston
Vice-Captain J. S. Armstrong
With a strong nucleus returning plus a keen
group of new boys, this year's squad showed
itself to be most capable from the very beginning.
Clouston and Armstrong were excellent team
leaders. The First XI was one of the best teams
Boulden House has had in some time. In the
field we were most adept — very few catches not
taken. The bowling staff (Clouston, Barnett, Petty,
Stutz, Armstrong), was a formidable group. At
bat we were quite strong producing more runs
than ever>' before. As a result, this was a fine
season, with only the fact that rain forced the
cancellation of our game with Ridley preventing
it from being, perhaps, our best. My thanks go
to every boy on the squad for many happy
moments both during games and practices.
Colours: J. A. C. Clouston, J. S. Armstrong, I. S.
Barnett, R D. Stutz, T. D. Spence, P. D.

Clouston 11)
Littleside "B": 44 (Petty 6 wickets for 11 runs)
Saturday, May 3. Crescent School at T.C.S.
Crescent were a much younger teaun and no
match for our Firsts.
T.C.S.: 170 for 4 (Stutz 38, Hunter 25, Arm-
strong 25, Outerbridge 21 ).
Crescent: 19 (Petty 3 wickets for 2 runs).
Wednesday, May 7. Hillfield at T.C.S.
Again our batting was strongandour bowling
more than adequate.
T.C.S.: 120 (Memory 46 runs, Spence 12)
Hillfield: 21 (Clouston 4 wickets for 1 run)
Wednesday, May 14. Appleby at T.C.S.
Batting first Appleby rsm up the highest score
against us so far. However, we passed this
score with the loss of only 4 wickets. Another
excellent game — won in the field as Memory
had four catches.
T.C.S.: 64 for 4 (Clouston 35 not out, Stutz 10)
Appleby: 61 (Qouston 6 wickets for 32 runs)
Wednesday, May 21. S.A.C. at T.C.S.

pattern of strong batting, good bowling, and
excellent fielding.
T.C.S.: 153 runs for 8 (Hunter 35, Armstrong 34,
Clouston 23, Spence 16).
S.A.C.: 26 (Clouston 7 wickets for 3 runs)
Monday, May 26. T.C.S. at Lakefield Second XI.
This was our first difficult game of the season.
Batting first, the Grove ran up a score of 67 before
we got them out. Boulden House went to bat with
much confidence but we soon found Lakefield's
bowling to be good and their fielding excellent
It was a thrilling match, however, with T.C.S.
falling one run short when the last wicket fell
in the last over preventing a win or a draw.
T.C.S.: 66 (Spence 15, Clouston 16, Armstrong
12).
Lakefield: 67 (Clouston 4 wickets for 18 runs).
Wednesday, May 28. Lakefield Second XI at
T.C.S.
In the return match, the Grove showed us that
they were better still. Putting us into bat, we were
dismissed for 48 runs. Lakefield passed our score
with a loss of 7 wickets. Although out-scored, we
were not outplayed nor out-skilled.
Poge 89
Grove's seconds were too bigphysically forus.
There were, however, two good games and we
learned much from them, especially how to take
a loss graciously.
T.C. S.: 48 (Armstrong 15 runs)
Lakefield: 52 for 7 (Clouston 4 wickets for 11
runs. )
Saturday, May 31. T.C.S. at U.C.C.
With U.C.C. batting first and quite confidently
on their home ground, it looked as if we would
suffer another loss. Our fielding was shaky for
the first time in the season. With the score at
65 for 5 at tea time, a draw seemed possible.
However, after tea the bowlers took hold and
we dismissed the next five wickets for only 16
more runs. Our opening pair (Stutz Etnd Spence)
then proceeded to bat flawlessly. Giving no chan-
( es whatever, this pair produced 82 runs to win
the match without the loss of a single wicket A
thrilling climax to our last game of the season.
Spece scored 61 runs, Stutz 14 and as a pair ran
w ith precision and daring. Congratulations!

the batting forceful except for one game. There
is an excellent nucleus here fornext Spring. Many

like to graduate to?
The new Mustang Sportsroof, the new Cougar convertible, or the
all-new Maverick. The better idea cars from Ford. The up-scale fun
cars from Ford. And very much built for fun.
So which do you choose? Maybe all three. The Mustang for the
open road during the cooler weather. The Cougar for the wide
open spaces during the long, hot summer. The Maverick
(or straight money-saving in style, all year through.
When you're thinking about graduating, think about
the better idea cars from Ford.
They're a nice step up the ladder.

Learning . . . Earning . . . Yearning . . .
Like Napoleon's soldier, who carried a marshal's baton in his knapsack,
the young man setting out upon a career today carries with him his own
chances of ultimate success. Learning power can fit him for the respon-
sibility which accompanies earning power. Equally important, however,
is that drive from within — yearning power — toward personal progress.
Stelco's progress has always been built by the progress of individuals,
and there will always be places among the people of Stelco for young
men, and women, whose ambitions are based firmly on learning, earning
and yearning.

A tycoon. At my age!
Growth. Diversification. Healthy yield. Kind
of a tall order to find in one investment pro-
gram. Particularly when you're a beginner.
Didn't faze Royal Trust for a minute. They
came up with a recommendation that covered
all bases — ABC Managed Funds.
The A stands for American stocks, B for
bonds, and C for Canadian stocks. You can
invest in any or all of them. And Royal Trust
will tailor a plan to fit your individual needs.
Thing I like about it is that I get the "big port-
folio" benefits without needing a mint of money.
Another thing. There are no loading charges
and the fees are about as low as they come.
It's quite something. Royal Trust showing so
much interest in a small investor. Guess that's
how they've grown to be Canada's largest trust
company.
